Cankles 2016 Tester 2018 Trump 2016 Rosendale 2018 Biden 2020 Montana 177,709 253,876 143% 279,240 235,963 85% 244,786
Note how the Montana Machine turned out 77,000 more "votes" for Jon Tester in an off-year than Hillary got in a presidential election year.
Heck, Testes got 9,000 more "votes" than the Tater got in the Cheat Year. They must be going for The Cheat big-time for Testes in 2024.
I can't imagine him running otherwise.
Jon Tester (50.3%) got a much higher percentage of the vote than Hillary (36%) did. There's hardly anything mysterious about the vote numbers being much higher when a candidate gets 14% more of the vote.
