2016 election

Gov. Bullock won re-election in the 2016 gubernatorial election with just over 50% of the vote in 2016,^[4] despite Donald Trump having also won the state in a much larger margin.

Tenure

Despite claims of being a supposed “moderate” Democrat,^[5]^[6] Bullock is a leftist who refused to sign a statewide "born alive" bill banning infanticide^[7] out of pro-abortion stubbornness and who called for a federal minimum wage of $15/hour while hypocritcally having only paid his own interns $9/hour.^[8]

2020 Senate run

See: 2020 United States Senate election in Montana

After dropping out of the 2020 presidential race, Bullock later announced his run for U.S. Senate in the 2020 United States Senate election in Montana to attempt unseating current Republican one-term incumbent Steve Daines^[9] despite previously insisting that he would not consider a bid for the seat.^[10]

Bullock is backed by ActBlue.^[11]
