Hometown Helena this Thursday, October 3: Candidate Introductions

October 1


Hey Y’all,


We will continue our ‘Candidate Introductions’ this week at Hometown Helena. We had a very good discussion last week with several candidates for the Montana House of Representatives, and two for the Montana Senate. It is still possible to have a civil conversation here in Helena, even given the different perspectives people have with regard to what are the best policy directions for our great state. We’ll continue in the same way this Thursday. There ought to be ample time for questions and some discussion with these candidates. Once again, it’s no easy or simple matter to run for office. Please thank these folks for their willingness to lead and serve the rest of us in the Montana House or Senate.  


Here are the folks we are expecting:


SD 40

  • Greg Guthrie (R)

  • Laura Smith (D)              


HD 81

  • Mary Caferro (D – incumbent)

 

HD 83

  • Jill Cohenour (D – incumbent)

  • Wes Feist (R)                   

 

HD 84

  • Michele Crepeau (D)

  • Julie (Darling) Dooling (R – incumbent)                


We hope you will join us, in person at Helena College. Or, via the Zoom courtesy of Aja Rail and the fine folks at Pinion Global, Inc.
