MT Gov. Steve Bullock Trails By 3 Pts In US Senate Race

The New York Times reports:

Republicans hold a narrow lead up and down the ballot in Montana, according to a New York Times/Siena College poll Friday, as Democrats remain highly competitive in a state President Trump won by 20 points in 2016.

Over all, Mr. Trump leads Joe Biden by six points, 49 percent to 43 percent, echoing favorable results for Mr. Biden in Times/Siena surveys of relatively white states across Northern battlegrounds.

But in the hotly contested race for U.S. Senate, the Republican senator Steve Daines narrowly leads Gov. Steve Bullock [photo], 49 percent to 46 percent. The survey was conducted from Oct. 18 to 20, before the final presidential debate on Thursday.
