CI-132: Vote NO!
VOTE NO on CI-132
- Designed by career Democrats: CI-132 was submitted by Monica Paoli & Megan Simpson. Paoli was the Montana Finance Director for Montanans for Tester. Simpson is a longtime campaign operative for the Democrats, including the Montana Democrat Party and former MT Democrat Governor Steve Bullock’s national PAC activities.
- Designed to protect extreme liberal judges & hinder conservative judicial candidates: If passed, CI-132 would create a new section in the Montana Constitution to mandate that judicial elections be nonpartisan, and would prohibit judicial candidates from using labels to indicate their political party affiliation.
- Designed to obstruct Republican legislation: CI-132 is an attempt to provide cover for liberal activist judges by obfuscating their party affiliation which will ensure “Democrat” judges continue to win elections so they can overrule conservative legislation passed by elected Republican legislators.
Summary: Powerful activist “Democrat” judges are working to overthrow common-sense conservative legislation in Montana at every turn. While these initiatives are written to appear to prevent partisanship in judicial elections, this is a façade. These initiatives were written by career Democrats, and they are in fact designed to hide the clear partisan bias of judicial candidates who are loyal to the extreme liberal Democrat agenda from being exposed during the election process. Stop judicial overreach! VOTE NO on CI-132!

Letter from Our Chair – “Thank You Flathead Republicans”
The 2024 general elections are over and Flathead County has proven itself to be a strong Republican county once again. Compared to 2020, over 14,000 more people voted in our county. They voted overwhelmingly for Republican candidates.
Even in the three legislative districts gerrymandered to be strongly Democrat legislative seats, Representative Elect Lyn Bennett won one seat as a Republican, and our Republican candidates Doug Adams and Cathy Mitchell lost by 3 percent of the vote. Our thanks go to all three of these candidates for fighting the campaign fights.
Our Flathead Republican legislators were chosen for important legislative leadership positions last week for the upcoming 2025 legislature. Senator Elect Matt Regier was elected Senate President by his peers. Representatives Amy Regier and Braxton Mitchell were elected as House Majority Whips by their peers. We are proud of all of them.
Finally, all of this occurred because Flathead Republicans talked to their family, friends and neighbors and activated them to vote. This all occurred because the Flathead Republicans Central Committee mailed out a Republican Voting Guide to all the new county residents in time for the elections. This occurred because a handful of very motivated Republicans walked door to door spreading the good news about themselves as candidates.
On behalf of the Flathead Republicans, Thank you to everyone for the successful November elections. Enjoy our success. Prepare to get back to work to fight for freedom this January. After the holidays we need to get back in the arena supporting our Republican principles and our Republican legislators.
Thankful,
Dr. Al Olszewski
Chairman

Vote NO on Harmful Initiatives!
Millions of dollars have been pouring in from outside Montana to push 3 extremely harmful amendments to the Montana constitution this election. Dark money from extreme liberal PACs in blue states is being used to attempt to complicate our elections, overthrow conservative Republican candidates, and codify abortion on demand through all 9 months of pregnancy! This November, it’s critical that we all send a resounding NO vote on all 3 of these radical initiatives. Please educate yourself, and help spread the word to friends and family!

Vote Sheehy to Victory!
U.S. Senate candidate Tim Sheehy spoke words of common sense, truth, and passion while addressing 300 supporters at the 2024 Lincoln Reagan Trump Dinner hosted by the Flathead Republicans in Kalispell October 11th. “Secure our border. Safe streets. Cheap gas. Cops are good, criminals are bad. Boys are boys, and girls are girls!” Sheehy proclaimed while emphasizing the critical race against extreme liberal Jon Tester. “Tester is a party line Democrat. He voted to impeach Trump twice, and has voted with Biden over and over and over again.”
The entire nation is watching Montana, with tens of millions of dollars in advertising expected in the month of October alone. Sheehy’s victory would help claim a Republican majority in the U.S. Senate to thwart the outrageous radical liberalism of the Democratic Party. The U.S. has spent billions of dollars to house and feed illegal immigrants swarming through a broken southern border. And the senseless war in Ukraine costing millions of lives has received over $200 billion of U.S. intervention with no plans by the power-brokers to effect a conclusion.
Sheehy’s push to victory has received attention in even the extremely liberal national media, as polls show him leading Tester by as much as 8 points. “Together we can save America,” Sheehy shouted to resounding applause by the Lincoln Reagan Trump dinner attendees. “Let’s get to work!”

CI-128: VOTE NO!
VOTE NO on CI-128
CI-128 is part of an extreme, horrific, radical out-of-state effort aimed at cementing abortion on demand – including late term abortions and taxpayer funded abortions – into our society. Millions of dollars from California and Illinois are pouring into Montana to change our state constitution to enshrine abortion up until the moment of birth, at taxpayer expense. This incredibly harmful constitutional initiative is written in a very insidious manner and its impact would be unimaginable!
If passed:
- Non-doctors, such as dental assistants or physical therapists, will be allowed to perform abortions!
- Women who are injured by the abortionist or have severe or life-altering complications will lose all right to legal recourse!
- Human traffickers, statutory rapists, and pimps will be able to take their victims to an abortion clinic and hide their crime!
- Parents will not have the right to know if their teenager or young child is having an abortion without telling them!
- Painful, late-term dismemberment abortions will be allowed through all 9 months of pregnancy!
- Taxpayers funding of abortions through all 9 months would be allowed!
We as the Flathead Republican Party strongly OPPOSE CI-128. VOTE NO!
Grateful acknowledgement is due to Robin Sertell, author and abortion survivor, for contributing to the content of this page.

Cory Swanson
Judges in Montana run nonpartisan. That makes it difficult to know exactly where their political allegiance lies. Everyone has an opinion. We hope the following information will help you in deciding which MT Supreme Court candidate to vote for.
Cory Swanson vs Jerry Lynch
Mr. Swanson is the Broadwater County Attorney. As a prosecutor he has shown a concern for public safety. He hasn’t let offenders off easy as some prosecutors around the country. He was a deputy attorney general under Republican Tim Fox and wants a judiciary that will interpret the law and not legislate from the bench.
Mr. Lynch is a retired federal magistrate from Butte. He said, “The union’s influence in our life was tremendous.” He also has said that “The judiciary is the last bastion against a supermajority” (GOP). That is a very partisan statement.
Our strong recommendation is to vote for Swanson.
