Juneau has conceded to Zinke. In a emailed statement she writes:Sometimes, results don’t go the way we want them to, and it’s ok to be disappointed. But, we should not be discouraged. We need to pick up the pieces and continue our work to make this world a better place.
I just called Congressman Zinke to congratulate him on his re-election, and I wished him the best. I hope that after this long campaign he will truly work to represent all of us as our Congressman. -

Montana Citizens for I-182 Treasurer Jeff Krauss made the following statement this evening:
"Montana voters made the compassionate decision today, restoring access to medical marijuana for sick and suffering patients. We’re thrilled with the result, but mainly we’re heartened that patients like Katie Mazurek and Bob Ream will once again have access to the medicine they need in their battles with cancer.
When the Legislature passed SB 423, it acted without regard to patients with serious debilitating illnesses. When the new restrictions went into effect, around 12,000 patients lost access overnight. Today, the voters corrected that wrong. Today, we replaced a system that was built to fail under SB 423 with a responsible and accountable medical marijuana law, one that will work for Montana and ensure that patients who need it, continue to have access." -
