News
Michael Black Wolf is in the news because the Montana Democratic Senate race has drawn heavy outside spending, with two PACs pushing total outside money to about $5 million. A separate court ruling also kept Election Day voter registration in place for federal races in Montana, preserving the voting rules for the Senate contest. Overall, the reporting suggests the race is active but still somewhat unclear, with little specific detail about Black Wolf’s own campaign moves in the summaries provided.
