<p>I want to congratulate Kurt Alme and wish him and his family the best. This isn’t the result we worked so hard for, but I’m deeply grateful for my family and our campaign team, and I am proud of what we accomplished. We left it all on the field. We drove nearly every mile of this state, showed up in places politicians hadn’t been in years, and ran this race the right way. And we showed Montana, and the country, that there’s a different path forward for our politics. I got into this race because I believed that the broken, divisive politics of Washington, D.C. are failing the hard-working families of this state, and that our kids deserve better. I still believe that. We didn’t get over the hill, and that stings. But what we built together will endure. <strong>We proved that an Independent can compete in Montana, that Republicans, Democrats, and Independents can come together around the values we share, and that the people of this state are hungry for a politics that answers to them. </strong>To every Montanan who believed in this campaign: thank you.</p>

<h2>Make the Montana Way of Life a Reality Again</h2>

The values that Montana Independent US Senate candidate Seth Bodnar is running on in 2026

Seth Bodnar Montana Values

<p>This is the Montana Way. The same values that say the government has no business in your bedroom, your doctor’s office, or your gun cabinet also say that public lands belong to all of us equally — not just those who can afford to buy them. Individual liberty and collective responsibility are two sides of the same coin. Independent-minded Montanans believe in both.</p>

<h2>Individual Liberty &amp; Collective Responsibility</h2>

<p>The day after the field for Montana’s U.S. Senate race was finalized, Independent U.S. Senate candidate Seth Bodnar’s campaign released a new statewide TV ad, “Boxes,” rejecting the idea that Montanans have to fit their views into one party’s platform or the other, and that Bodnar will always do what’s right for Montana, no matter which box it falls in.</p>
