(angus reid) - Jon Tester is holding on to first place in the race for one of Montana’s seats in the United States Senate, according to the latest poll by Harstad Strategic Research. 48 per cent of respondents in the Treasure State would vote for the Democrat, while 42 per cent would support Republican incumbent Conrad Burns. A mid-October survey by Rasmussen Reports gave Tester a two-point edge over Burns.
Burns was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 1988, and earned new terms in 1994 and 2000. In the last election, Burns defeated Democratic candidate Brian Schweitzer with 51 per cent of all cast ballots. Schweitzer went on to win the Treasure State’s gubernatorial race in November 2002. Read More
