Our democracy depends on us rising up, casting vote
This election coming up is perhaps the most important of our life time. It’s a choice between an out-of-control president and decent, respectful, responsible, and knowledgeable people, like Joe
Biden and Kamala Harris. We simply cannot stand by and allow those in power to take our power from us.
We must stand, speak out when a wrong is sighted and be heard. The enablers to wrong doing (Daines and Gianforte) must be held accountable.
Tester, Bullock, Cooney, Williams, Biden and Harris are among those who are on the correct path and will hold to the values we all cherish. Give them your support this year.
Each of our votes will count. Here in Gallatin County we all have the right and privilege to vote by mail. We preserve our democracy by taking part. The best, most important thing we can do is to vote. Indeed, our very democracy depends on it!

Why are Gianforte, Daines not standing with Montana?
Why are Daines and Gianforte standing with the Washington-Republican Party and a president as he sues Montanans? The party and president are suing because they believe our elected officials
— county commissioners and county clerks, even our republican secretary of state — are incapable of performing a valid election by mail. Trump is bullying Montana elected officials, and both
Daines and Gianforte are standing with the bully. Why don’t Daines and Gianforte stand with us? They are supposed to be Montanans. In fact, they were elected to represent Montanans, to believe in the good people here and support what is best for Montana.
So I don’t understand: Why are Daines and Gianforte standing with Washington/ Trump, and against Montanans?
