Don’t reward local election deniers, John Birchers and GOP central committee radicals in the upcoming Primary election. Regardless of your party affiliation, moderates, Democrats, independents and NonMAGA Republicans must unite for a return to local sanity. Individual voters can choose whether to vote a Republican or Democratic ballot in the primary election. Voters should choose the Republican ballot and vote for candidates that do not support conspiracies, local election fraud theories and hand counting ballots.
Wayne Rusk, SD-44 candidate, has his representative experience behind him and is outside the local rightwing nutcase movement of government nullification and election fraud.
Michelle Binkley, HD-85, has shed the influence of Theresa Manzella and learned that good legislative results require hard work, compromise and consideration of the possible versus ideological grandstanding.
Dave Bedey, HD-86, has the experience and intellect required to make informed legislative decisions. While we may not agree with many of these candidates’ positions, at least their efforts are directed toward real Montana issues and workable solutions. All three deserve your vote.
Just because the local GOP has consumed the national GOP kool-aid does not mean as local voters we can’t reject extremism, return to local community values and vote for legislators with common sense. Re-enforce support for our Clerk and Recorder’s office, their employees and volunteer election workers by rejecting supporters of local election lies.

Remind me, Tim. Who said we should just ignore the Constitution when we see fit? Hint: he is orange, an adulterer and NOT a Democrat.

TIM – stop with your nonsense. You are a gaslighted man who supports Manzella and Kathy Love no matter if they lie, or give raffle tickets to folks to win a gun if the people will put up their signs on their properties. The offer is or was on their webpages! Or are you telling us that its okay to create a perception that these folks support Love or Manzella when all they really want is a gun?
Isn’t that what Biden is doing by allowing illegals into this country? Giving them freebies for their votes?
The difference between them and BINKLEY, BEDEY, and RUSK as well as OVERSTREET don’t have to do that. Folks who support them know they will really work for the people of the valley – not for their own self-serving agendas.
None of them – Michelle, Bedey, Rusk, or Overstreet have to bribe folks to put up their signs. Citizens do so with pride not for raffle tickets.
All four of these candidates: RUSK SD44, BINKLEY HD85, BEDEY HD87 and OVerstreet HD 88 are principled, have legislative experience behind them so they can get to work immediately when the legislature starts in January.
Love, Dailey, and other newbies will waste two years of time learning what to do and how to do it. Manzella will give them their marching orders and YOU know it – that’s what so sad about you TIM. You are completely gaslighted. and apparently YOU want Manzella to continue suggesting that citizens use an illegal way to try and fight Washington DC when there is a completely safe and Constitutional methodsof doing so? That says YOU do not know the Constitution either!
VOTE RUSK SD44, BEDEY HD86, OVERSTREET HD88 and MICHELE HD85 and you will see a difference IN QUALITY BILLS PROPOSED IN THELEGISLATURE STARTING IN JANUARY when we get ethical people into office versus those whose ethics are questionable. .

Well-well….surprise the mouthpiece of the Rino-Solution Caucus responds and on the attack.
My cat buries things smarter you in her litter box. Mrs Satan.
Tim says
If I recall I often see you promoting Democrat principles and positions in the Star and elsewhere….including this letter. You bet let the marxists and left vote in the primary as Rebublicans! Your letter promoting and encouraging RINOS and Democrats to vote for Rusk, Binkley and Bedey is probably the best endorsement of Theresa Manzella, and Kathy Love I can think of. You just correctly named those other three candidates RINOs and exactly what they are!
So…to the public – if you want the Bitterroot to turn BLUE and vote the progressive Obama legacy and Biden’s current agenda – be sure and vote RUSK – BINKLEY – BEDEY and their voting record of voting with the Missoula Democrats. Why – because we all need to get along as the left/Marcists run the USA into the ground and the Constitution put in a box and buried.
Mark says
So, if I don’t vote ultra- conservative , I’m not a Republican ? No compromises, no working with other interests to get things done ? And here lies the problem with the rest of the “Rosendales” in Montana politics
