Sheehy “screwed up the most important part of the campaign – his introduction to the voters”
Helena, MT – It’s been a rough few weeks for Mitch McConnell recruit and Montana newcomer Tim Sheehy. Since his campaign launch two weeks ago, Sheehy has been hammered with a slew of bad headlines and “screwed up the most important part of the campaign – his introduction to the voters.”
Before Sheehy even announced his campaign, Montanans were first introduced to him by learning about his recent arrival to Montana, multimillion-dollar luxury resort properties, and his ties to D.C. lobbyists.
Here’s what Montanans have been seeing about Tim Sheehy’s Senate campaign since his launch two weeks ago:
