Mike Mayott is a lifelong Republican, but this November he’s voting Independent. He’s angry that Steve Daines anointed Kurt Alme without a single Montana Republican getting a say. And he wants a senator who’ll be honest about January 6th, no matter which party that makes uncomfortable. Mike, thank you for putting Montana before party. That's exactly what I'll do in the Senate. #montana #mtpol #mtsen

I’ve got a message for the White House: caring about what happens in our state doesn't make us "backwards and poor." I won’t let Montana be exploited by Big Tech companies who want to build data centers in our backyards. Follow @sethbodnarcampaign for more #DeclareYourIndependence #mtsen #mtpol #Montana #JustShowUp

Can you stop scrolling for just a second? Brand new polling shows Seth in a dead heat with DC insiders’ handpicked candidate. Seth and Kurt Alme are exactly tied, 49% to 49%. That’s why the political establishment is already preparing to spend millions to elect Steve Daines’ hand-picked successor. In a race this close, every single dollar makes a difference. If you’re with us in fighting for true leadership that answers to the people of Montana, not Washington elites, will you chip in and hel

Steve Daines, Kurt Alme and their Republican machine are at it again. They’re spending a million dollars from their Super PAC to run a smear campaign to avoid having to talk about their own record of failure. What the ads don’t tell you is that the leadership team that Seth Bodnar built during his time at UM was majority women. Montanans deserve the full picture, not a headline. These are the facts, and Seth stands behind his record. *Note: AI was not used in the production of this content.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
