Montana is much like many states these days. The “urban” areas are small geographically compared to the rest of the state but LARGE population wise.
In my state, King County/Seattle out-votes for the rest of the state (there was a day when that area was more balanced vs far left as it is today).
The Washington State anti-gun bill is passing with flying colors. The 30-second ads say kids shouldn’t be allowed to buy assault weapons to shoot up schools. Nobody reads about what is really in the 30-pages of the stupid law. Mob rule with these referendums.
