According to Fox, he was polling at about 3%.

Should this worry Tester?

A tiny  little bit...can't hurt, but the fundementals don't shift....  Tester is up a bit in the polls, but well within the margin or error. - A close race remains a close race.

A large percentage of ballots have already been cast and he’s still on the ballot, so the impact won’t be that big. It certainly isn’t good news for Tester though.

Might make the margin tighten a bit, but probably not enough, especially for an absurdly weak joker like ROSENdale.

I get that Atlas loves "#analyzing" Montana elections/politics, but this was already posted in the Montana megathread.

Not sure this is entirely true.

Breckenridge supported Rosendale specifically on the issue of dark money, but it seems like reporters misunderstood him and believed that he was fully endorsing Rosendale. He clarified that he still wants people to vote for him.

I honestly think it could unify all the conservative voters behind Rosendale enough to pull up a win in Montana against Tester. And if North Dakota is called to Kevin Cramer 30 minutes after the closing of North Dakota polls on Election Night (which would not surprise me due to Cramer's huge lead in the polls), then this should be a good night for Rosendale in neighboring Montana.

Good news for a Republican always requires it's own thread instead of trying to find the appropriate megathread. /s

I don't know how the news organizations are so confident, but if it is not close, they sometimes call the states in the first minute with 0% reporting.
