This race is going to be very close. I'd like to see Cooney match this margin. I almost want Cooney to win more.

So it looks like there is no Green or Libertarian candidate on the ballot this cycle. Just Bullock and Daines. Mono y mano.

Pure tossup, maybe slight Tilt R.

Daines and Bullock have regulary been polling above 45% or close to 50% each. So not a major pool of undecided voters left. It's going to be a tight race one way or the other.

No write-in either, as far as I'm aware. "Some other candidate" voters will be spoiling their ballots.

This race is going to be very close. I'd like to see Cooney match this margin. I almost want Cooney to win more.

Why? It's still possible one of ME or NC go the GOP's way (I consider it a given that CO and AZ flip to D, while AL goes R). Winning MT seat would give Dems a bigger margin of error in the senate, which will be essential for Biden to get stuff done. IA and the GAs are not certain either. And tbh, I'd feel much more comfortable with 51, 52 or 53 Dem senators instead of a bare 50-50.

I agree Gianforte is horrible while Daines is sort of "ok" for a GOPer, but MT-governorship isn't worth more than a senate seat. It's a small state population-wise and has an R-dominated State Legislature, causing the gov to have a smaller impact. Cooney could only govern by executive action or sign/veto GOP bills. Sure, I'd much rather have Cooney winning than Gianforte, but winning MT-Sen is more important for 2020. In terms of importance, I'd say MT-Sen > MT-Gov > MT-AL.

I said almost, I know the Senate is more important

But my reasoning is that Gianforte is really, really, awful. It's a state near and dear to my heart, and I'd hate to see it be governed by him, when Cooney is clearly a better alternative. Population size doesn't really come into it for me.

It's gonna be hard for D's to win more than 52 seats anyways which would give them a Supermajority, that would also w them to Crt pack. But, there is still optimism.

AZ, CO, GA, IA, ME and NC remains their probable path to Majority in Senate, especially since Pelosi  won't release the stimulus

You know Rosendale was behind by big margins to Tester by huge margins and lost by only 4, MT is weird and the incumbent from either party isn't safe no matter if it's Tester or Daines

This race is a pure Toss-up, and I do think a lot of people are seriously underestimating Bullock's chances here. While I could see some last-minute shift/momentum (as a result of some combination of trends catching up with voting patterns, undecideds breaking heavily R, polls slightly underestimating R strength, etc.) costing Democrats like Greenfield and Cunningham whose fortunes hinge on a very Democratic-friendly environment and/or Biden overperformance at the top of the ticket, Bullock has a high built-in level of support and stellar organization which won’t be easy to overcome regardless of the result at the presidential level.

So it looks like there is no Green or Libertarian candidate on the ballot this cycle. Just Bullock and Daines. Mono y mano.

No write-in either, as far as I'm aware. "Some other candidate" voters will be spoiling their ballots.

It’s like FL-SEN 2018: There’s a write-in option for every race, it’s just that there’s no serious write-in candidate/campaign (the filing/registration deadline for write-in candidates passed in September), so yeah, it would be equivalent to spoiling your ballot.
