Polls: Sheehy Surges Ahead of Sen. Tester in Montana

By    |   Thursday, 10 October 2024 07:57 PM EDT

Tim Sheehy, the former Navy SEAL challenging Democrat Sen. Jon Tester to represent Montana, continues to surge in polls.

A New York Times/Siena Research poll released Thursday shows Sheehy ahead, 52%-44%, an 8-point swing from its previous poll, and a Public Opinion Strategies survey conducted for the Montana GOP shows Sheehy with a 51%-45% lead.

"Montanans overwhelmingly support the strong conservative leadership of Governor [Greg] Gianforte, Attorney General [Austin] Knudsen, and Secretary of State [Christi] Jacobsen. And they are fired up to send Tim Sheehy to Washington and retire Jon Tester once and for all," Montana Republican Party Chair Don Kaltschmidt said in a statement.

"Montanans understand what's at stake, and in less than 30 days, they'll make their voices heard loud and clear."

The New York Times/Siena College poll of 656 likely voters in Montana was conducted from Oct. 5 to 8 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.3 percentage points.

The Public Opinion Strategies poll of 500 likely voters was conducted from Sept. 29-Oct. 1 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.34 percentage points.
