I want to reciprocate the feelings of gratitude to Lee Bridges for running a primary campaign that focused on the issues rather than personal animosities. Playing to divisive rhetoric for short-term political points hurts all of us in the long-term.
As Bridges noted in a recent Letter to the Editor, this was an ideal that she and I both agreed to before we ever started campaigning. I want to thank her for being true to her words.
What Montana needs now more than ever is civility and the ability to build bridges towards common ground. Lee Bridges captures this ideal and as the only candidate who resides within the district is the clear choice for HD 92 in November.
