MT-AL: Internal poll shows tight battle in Montana House race

The race for Montana’s at-large House seat is heating up as a new poll shows Democrat Kathleen Williams and Republican Matt Rosendale running neck-and-neck less than four months before the election.

Williams and Rosendale are knotted up at 47 percent each, according to an internal poll from the Williams campaign that was obtained exclusively by The Hill. Another 6 percent of likely voters say they are undecided.

Williams’s net favorability rating is stronger than Rosendale’s with 44 percent of likely voters finding her favorable and 28 percent finding her unfavorable, while 40 percent of likely voters say they have favorable views of Rosendale and 38 percent say they have unfavorable views of the Republican.

Montana Republicans “know Kathleen’s independent approach appeals to all Montanans and her strong favorability advantage is a clear sign that voters across the spectrum like her. Momentum in Montana is on her side,” said a source close to the Williams campaign.

“After leaving Maryland to run for office six times in the last 10 years, voters know who Matt Rosendale is and they don’t want another typical politician who is out of touch with Montana's values, and they certainly don't like him for federal office.”
