Hillary was wrong. They are NOT a basket of deplorables

They are a festering cesspool of deplorables and I sincerely hope that every single horrid one of them suffers from the policies that they endorsed.

To think that they just elected a congressman who assaulted a reporter and that the assault may be WHY they won is astounding.

I sincerely hope that the reporter sues this fucker into oblivion.

will be ignored.

The story - and eventually, the sympathy - will center around those ignorant white people who are being hurt for voting against their own interest, and who will never vote against the Rs, because they are deplorable, irredeemable assholes.

What about EARLY voting? They have a Democratic Senator (Tester,) and had a Democratic Governor (Schweitzer.)

Early voting compared to election day.

It's my understanding that Quist was ahead with early voting and lost the lead on election day. There really is the chance that the good old people of Montana saw what happened as a left wing attempt to throw an election. I think the money played a much larger role.

the expected right-wing side of the state, in fact large swath of the state east of big cities, were expected to and did vote 'right.'
