But that record does not appear to have impressed the current leadership of the Montana Republican Party. The Helena Independent RecordFormer Republican Gov. Marc Racicot said over the weekend that the Montana Republican Party recently informed him of a resolution voted on and approved by party leadership declaring he is no longer considered a Republican. ... Racicot said in an interview over the weekend that he was not warned or informed of the resolution before it was voted on and sent to him.
