Montana | The Votes Are (Almost) Counted

CNN page that has the summary of the key races in Montana. No big surprises: President Bush secured our three electoral votes, Brian Schweitzer won a decisive victory to be the next Governor, Representative Denny Rehberg handily defeated his challenger, and the voters approve of medical marijuana but disapprove of same-sex marriage.

And for what it’s worth, I’ve heard NO mention anywhere of voter suppression or intimidation, nor surly polling place workers, nor faulty balloting methods or machines, nor too-long lines. As near as I can tell, the democratic process in Montana is very peaceful and civil.

WSJ just colored Nevada red … but it leaves Ohio and Michigan white (along with New Mexico, Iowa and Wisconson). Fox insists on crediting W with 269 without considering Nevada: will Fox consider Nevada as going over the top?

Thanks for signing in, . Now you can comment. (Click here should you choose to sign out.)

As you post your comment, please mind our simple comment policy: we welcome all perspectives, but require that comments be both civil and respectful. We also ask that you avoid the extensive use of profanity, racist terms (neither of which we consider civil or respectful), and other boorish language.

We reserve the right to delete any comment, and to prohibit you from commenting on this site, if we feel you have broached this policy. As a courtesy, we will first send you an email noting a violation so you understand the boundaries. This will occur only once, however, and should we ban you from our comment forums we expect that ban to be permanent.

We also will frown upon those who suggest that we ban other individuals for voicing unpopular opinions, should those opinions be voiced in a civil and respectful manner. The point of our comment threads is to provide a forum for spirited though civil and respectful discourse … it is not to provide a forum in which everyone will agree with your point of view.

If you can live by these rules, welcome aboard. If not, then we’re sorry it didn’t work out, and thanks for visiting The Command Post.
