Former Navy SEAL secures endorsements in 2024 Montana Senate bid
- Former Navy SEAL Tim Sheehy announces he will run for Senate as a Republican in 2024 to challenge incumbent Sen. Jon Tester.
- Sheehy has secured the endorsements of key Montana Republicans like Gov. Greg Gianforte and Sen. Steve Daines.
- The National Republican Senatorial Committee has also endorsed Sheehy, signaling the national party's support for his candidacy.
- However, Rep. Matt Rosendale is also considering entering the Republican primary, which could lead to an expensive and divisive contest.
- If Rosendale runs, it may complicate Sheehy's path to the nomination in this race rated as "lean Democrat" by election forecasters.
