Tim Sheehy has flipped Montana’s U.S. Senate seat in his first run for public office.
Republican Tim Sheehy has won Montana’s Senate race, unseating incumbent Sen. Jon Tester and adding to the GOP majority in the U.S. Senate. Tester — a moderate and the chamber’s only working farmer — was considered one of the most vulnerable Democrats on the ballot nationwide.Republicans took control of the Senate on Tuesday night with wins also in Ohio and West Virginia.
But after receiving Trump’s endorsement in February, Sheehy has appeared to switch his stance on the former president and pledged to work with Trump should he get reelected. Sheehy faced scrutiny during his campaign after recordings of him making remarks to his supporters about Native Americans being "drunk at 8 a.m." and throwing beer cans at him on the Crow Reservation were made public.
