    I plan to vote in Montana. I’ll do you that favor if you do me the favor of not talking this way. Every vote matters in every election in every state. The only reason what you’re saying is somewhat true is because people believe it’s true. Don’t perpetuate that idea.

        I don’t think so. There’s never only unopposed candidates on a ballot.

        That said, even if you were correct, who does it help to point that out?

          Many down ballot positions are unopposed where I live. Of course, I think you only are talking about national seats.

          The utility, then, is to note that safe seats operate similarly to unopposed seats especially when it comes to funding by national parties.
