The winner of Montana's Senate race between Tester and Republican Tim Sheehy could help determine who controls the upper chamber.
Senator Jon Tester, a Democrat from Montana, has a 5-point lead over his Republican challenger Tim Sheehy in a crucial 2024 Senate election, a new poll shows.A Napolitan News Service survey of 540 registered voters in Montana found that the incumbent was ahead of the Republican by 49 percent to 44 percent in what the polling group called the 'most important Senate race' of the 2024 elections.
If Harris wins the presidential election, Democratic Vice President Tim Walz will be the Senate tiebreaker in a 50-50 split. So the GOP would need to flip West Virginia and Montana to achieve outright control.'Of the several races considered toss-ups or competitive, most are leaning toward the Democrats at this time. Montana is likely the best opportunity for Republicans and the biggest risk for Democrats,' a Napolitan News Service spokesperson said in a statement.
