Support for Bedey

February 17, 2026 by Guest Post Leave a Comment

by Larry Keogh, Hamilton

I support David Bedey as State Senator for District 43. 

Dave has served as our REPRESENTATIVE from HD 86. Dave Bedey has served the people of Montana. Dave REPRESENTS them.

Dave respects the law. Dave understands that his elected position does not entitle him to break the law. Dave doesn’t threaten law officers. He has sworn to uphold the United States Constitution, and he lives by that oath.

Dave served honorably as an officer in the United States Army. Dave instructed at West Point, a leading engineering school in our nation. Dave ain’t no dummy.  

Dave Bedey doesn’t “flash” around. Nope, flashiness would interfere with his doing the job he was elected to.

We have, in Ravalli County, elected self-serving politicians. Dave is not that politician. Dave is a REPRESENTATIVE of the people and serves as such. When Dave was first elected to our State’s House, he hit the ground running.

Dave was on a mission to represent the people in HD68. When the legislative session opened, Dave carried bills drafted, crafted and designed to better the lives of his constituents. The people that elected him to office received a REPRESENTATIVE of Montana HD68.

Dave is NOT beholden to rogue organizations whose hijacking of a susceptible political party has occurred. Dave knows that these people have a voice. Theirs is one voice of many, and not the sole voice of Montana. Dave’s voice is one of reason.

I support Dave Bedey for Senate District 43 because he supports me.
