Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) led Democrats into an electoral slaughter.
Slamming face-first into Trump’s GOP buzzsaw wasn’t the end of the humiliation.
And now a Navy SEAL has just hit Chuck Schumer with the last nasty surprise he ever expected.
Montana Navy SEAL slammed the brakes on one of Democrats’ biggest deceptions
Donald Trump will be the next President, and Republicans will take back control of the Senate.
One of the GOP’s Senate pickups was in the state of Montana.
Former Navy SEAL Republican candidate Tim Sheehy defeated three term incumbent Jon Tester in Montana.
Sheehy is the owner of aerial fire-fighting company Bridger Aerospace, which employs over 200 people in Montana.
He is a decorated combat Veteran and received Donald Trump’s endorsement during the primary.
“Well, first of all, of course, it’s a great honor to have President Trump’s endorsement,” Sheehy, told Breitbart following the endorsement. “We’ve been supportive of him since even before the campaign started. We’ve been very vocal about our support of the America First policies and agenda, which he skillfully enacted during his time in the White House.”
Meanwhile, in a desperate attempt to hold on to his seat, Jon Tester attempted to distance himself from Harris and refused to endorse her.
Montana was guaranteed to send its three electors to the Trump column, it was only a matter of by how much of a margin.
Trump crushed Harris in the state, 59% to 38%.
Tester fared only marginally better, losing to Sheehy by nearly 10 points.
The Tester campaign strategy of campaigning as a moderate to get enough Montana voters to split their ticket didn’t work.
When it comes to his voting record, Tester hasn’t deviated much from the far-Left platform of politicians like Harris.
His days of campaigning as a moderate and voting like a leftist are coming to an end.
Tester and other politicians like him in Montana also got some bad news from Montana voters.
Jon Tester is out and Democrats’ ranked-choice scheme fails
Leftist operatives were trying to pass two ballot measures that would radically change the way elections are conducted in the state.
Montana Initiative 126 would create a system of so-called “jungle primaries” in which candidates can run under any party or no party, with the top 4 advancing to the general election.
It was narrowly defeated with 51.8% voting “no.”
Initiative 127 would require candidates to receive a majority of the vote in order to win the election, rather than a plurality.
The second measure would be easily defeated with 57% voting “no.”
The intent of the two measures together was a deceptive scheme to force ranked-choice voting on Montana.
While neither measure explicitly enacted rank-choice voting, the practical effect of the two measures together would force the Montana legislature to do so.
With four candidates appearing on a general election ballot, it’s highly likely that none of them would achieve over 50%.
So the legislature would need to either enact ranked-choice voting, or set up runoff elections that would be costly to Montana taxpayers.
The scheme mirrors what was done in Alaska, which shielded RINO Senator Lisa Murkowski from having to face off in a closed Republican primary, and also caused the state to elect a Democrat to Congress for the first time in decades.
Thankfully, Montana voters didn’t fall for this leftist scheme.
