Montana is one of the few states to have a race for Governor in 2008 but there will be little excitement attached to most of the contests in November.
President: Montana is part of the Republican oriented Rocky Mountain region but it has shown a willingness to vote for Democrats, supporting Bill Clinton in 1992. Obama will make this a target state and recent polls have shown McCain with a modest lead.
It’s going to be an unusual year for Montana voters, they will see much more of McCain and Obama than they would normally expect
Leans Republican
Governor: Incumbent Brian Schweitzer (D) is a very popular incumbent, though he has succeeded by being a more moderate to conservative kind of Democrat. This independence will help him coast to victory over Republican Roy Brown
Safe Democrat
Senator: Incumbent Max Baucus will win easily over Republican Kelleher.
Safe Democrat
House: Republican Dennis Rehberg is not quite as popular as Baucus or Schweitzer, but its close. He will win with ease.
