MT-SEN 2018: #Populism wins, #ShrillNeoliberalism loses

[Virginiá]

Look at the change in Tester's exit polls (by age):


2012:




2018:




Massive support among young voters

[MT Treasurer]

Looks like Tester's fellow hard-workin', straight-shootin' #populists in Chouteau County (where Tester grew up and has a farm) abandoned him. Tester lost the county this year after winning it in 2012.

That's okay, he made up for it with neoliberal corporatists in Bozeman who loved Denny Rehberg.

And he did 16 points better than the shrill corporatist elitist neoliberal there. #Populism

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Tester is doomed. This is what you get for betraying your constituents.

Wth lmao.

Virginia and her love of exit polls that show Dems crushing it with young voters knows no bounds

So run #populist candidates to win #college educated voters.

I need serious help

Seriously though, I'm not even sure this means all that much. It's a pretty sharp turn over one election, but maybe it means a large group of voters that is more open to Democrats that can counter-balance the shift with Boomers.

But I can't help but be curious why Tester got such deep support from young people. He had more rounded support last time. Did Montana start some chain of hipster ranches or something?

Angry MT cows get their revenge.

There was a strong third party vote in 2012, not so this time. That could explain some of it.

That will do. Populism clearly explains the rest

Taking corporate donations doesn't make you inauthentic, not the greatest thing in the world, but just another part of how things go.
