Farmer looks to Bradford to put constituents first in HD 13

Oct 15

As a fourth-generation Western Montana farmer and a sixth-generation American farmer, I’ve always considered myself a conservative Republican. But with today’s toxic political environment I find more solace thinking of myself as an Independent.

When I consider a candidate nowadays, I look for quality of character first and political party a distant second. In the Montana Legislature the priority should be on your constituents’ wishes first and foremost and the national “hot button issues” next, if at all.

I look for a candidate that votes his conscience and hopefully recognizes that good ideas can originate from both sides of the aisle.

I have known Dalton Bradford for a good while now and have been impressed with his calm demeanor and thoughtful presence. He was raised and educated in Polson and continued on to one of our exceptional state schools for his bachelor’s degree. Dalton was then employed in several industry jobs in Montana that gave him perspective.

He ultimately decided to move back to Lake County to work for the Montana Department of Revenue and hopefully help all of us with the ongoing decisions that are paramount to this place we all love and call home.

With considerable thought I am voting for Dalton Bradford for House District 13 and hope you will also.
