State GOP renews pushback against lawsuit from censured lawmakers
Rep. Denley Loge, R-St. Regis.
Montana Republican Party officials are calling for three elected state senators they claim do not represent GOP values to cease “continued schemes” to undermine the party and Republican voters.
In a lawsuit filed in Lewis and Clark District Court earlier this summer, Jason Ellsworth of Hamilton, Denley Loge of St. Regis and Shelley Vance of Belgrade allege that the Republican Party’s actions earlier this year to censure nine state senators, and removing their ability to vote for party officials at the GOP convention in June, went against bylaws and Republican principles.
A hearing on the lawsuit is scheduled for next week.
