Montana GOP Candidates Debate in Bozeman

Montana GOP Candidates Debate in Bozeman

Author: The Daily News Now! April 22, 2026 Duration: 1:54

Two Republican candidates for Montanas Western District House seat, Aaron Flint and Al Olszewski, debated key issues like natural resource jobs, housing costs, and U.S. strikes on Iran in a Montana GOP-hosted event on April 21, 2026. Flint frequently mentioned President Trumps endorsement, while Olszewski focused on trade and resource jobs. Both agreed on banning congressional stock trading and timely budgets. The debate was polite, with Olszewski stumbling over a word and Flint joking about lack of audience cheers. On housing, Olszewski blamed Wall Street and weak dollars, while Flint targeted regulations. Neither proposed tax cuts, focusing on spending trims. Montanas primary voting begins May 4 and ends June 2, leaving time for voters to decide between the two candidates.
