I knew Tester approx 20 years ago. He was new to running the farm, He was just another farmer that was trying to make a living.
He then ran for office. I talked to many of his neighbors and some of them were going to vote for him. Others said I am going to
stick with Burns, the republican who was in office. During several cycles since I have asked farmers from that area, who will win?
Many were sticking with Jon. But his base is Missoula, Bozeman, and Billings. ( the teachers union )
The last I knew his son in law was doing the farming but I could be out of touch.
The big problem to me is the people that are put up to run against Jon.
Billings isn't voting for Tester. It's a pretty conservative area all things considered.
