Don Pogreba is a high school English and Debate teacher at Helena High School in Helena, Montana. When not grading papers, he writes at Intelligent Discontent, a blog that has covered Montana politics since 2005.
"This is not just Montana’s race," said Betsy Swartz of Big Sky Rising, a grassroots organization backing Democrat Rob Quist in Thursday's special election for a U.S. House seat. "The entire country is watching us and helping us be successful.”
Montana's Greg Gianforte, who is running against Rob Quist for the state's only seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, has a history of donations to political candidates with deep ties to white nationalist groups and anti-government extremism.
