Not supporting Connell

May 28, 2014 by Editor

 

State Representative Pat Connell is featured in the latest “Letters to the Editor” as an election winner for Republican State Senator.

Sorry, folks, he’s “listed” as a Republican, but at a recent Republican dinner, when candidates presented their election stances, Connell had very little to say about his stance. Furthermore, a recent legislation voting report showed: (1) Whenever Republicans voted “yes” – Connell voted “no.” (2) Whenever Republicans voted “no” – Connell voted “yes.”

A 2013 poll of Montana conservatives in Taxpayers’ Advisory Bulletin (TAB) listed Connell’s election opposition, Scott Boulanger, with a rating of 68, which puts him in the conservative block. According to TAB, Connell’s rating is 8, which puts him in the liberal block.

Now, is Connell really a voting Republican? Or is he really a Democrat as a Republican candidate?

Voters, beware!
