Hertz: Gov. Bullock has spoken
Greg Hertz
Governor Bullock has issued another edict. This time, it’s taking away your right to choose how you vote in the November general election.
While I didn’t publicly oppose an all-mail ballot for the June primary election, it was a different time – we were still evaluating the coronavirus and its effect on Montana. Today, doctors have improved treatment and thousands of businesses across Montana have been able to operate by taking precautions to keep their customers safe. Surely, if you can safely go to the store to buy groceries you should be able to safely vote in person if you desire. If not, you have the option of voting with an absentee ballot. Yet, the governor wants an all-mail election.
What concerns me, and should concern all of us, is the inherent conflict of interest of the governor being on the ballot this November while simultaneously suspending election rules and rewriting them. The governor should be removed from any decisions regarding November’s election, but as we’ve seen, he’s already set the wheels in motion.

… Gov. Bullock, who continues to keep $1 billion safe under his desk ready to disburse to a worthy cause to help him get elected. Meanwhile, thousands of businesses and families continue to suffer due to his commands – commands which have been made without consulting the legislature.
After telling us time and time again that he didn’t want to run for the U.S. Senate because he didn’t want the job, New York Sen. Chuck Schumer flies into Montana and magically Bullock reverses course. What did the liberal New York senator promise Bullock? Nobody will ever know; however, we do know that it will come with a price that will not benefit Montana, but the liberal agenda of Democrat party bosses.
