From Twitter: "72 votes for Quist, 51 for Curtis and 37 for McCarthy, meaning McCarthy is out"

I think that Quist has a slightly stronger chance of winning, but I would rather have a 39 year old as the Representative than a 69 yea told, because Quist can probably count the number of terms he could win on one hand, meanwhile Curtis can get entrenched and serve for decades if she played her cards right. Curtis got 40% of the vote in a Republican wave year, I don't see why she'd have no shot in this election.

With Quist in the GE, I have a feeling we can win this.

Seems like a good choice!

I wonder if he'll get the grassroots fundraising boost that Ossoff did.

It's winnable but Quist would have to work. It seems like he's willing considering he toured the state shoring up support for this win.

He looks and sounds like every other Democrat that's won statewide in recent times.

Curtis' nomination in the 2014 SEN election after Walsh dropped out was a good example of the 'women come to power in crisis' theory. Theory predicts a Curtis loss since today was just a normal convention, not a crisis.

Congratulations to Rob Quist. Hope he wins, we need as many seats as possible.

He's a local hero/celebrity with name recognition and a general likeability

Outsider (though I guess Gianforte has that too), populist style, likeable as a person, ability to connect with the grassroots, and Gianforte seems pretty flawed, and just lost a statewide race three months ago, and seems to be using this election to stay relevant and probably as a stepping stone to another gubernatorial run in 2020.

I'm far more hopeful about this race than GA-06.

I'm far more hopeful about this race than GA-06.

Why? Montana swung 6 points to the right in 2016 giving Trump a 20 point win while GA-06 swung 21 points to the left, with Trump winning only by 1.5%. I realize that Democrats have won statewide in Montana many times and even just last election, but fighting the fundamentals of the state seems harder than in an individual district that trended largely in the positive direction.

Quist and Curtis are both lefty - Curtis was accused of being a psuedo-commie when she ran for Senate.
