Share the 2026 Primary Voting Guide!
Below is the link to the 2026 Primary Voter Guide for Lake County. The link will also lead you to the MT GOP press release and resolution regarding CI-132!
Lake County had a team of 8 individuals who spent approximately 200 hours over the last month meeting with all of the various candidates for each office talking to them about the various issues and specifically what is critical to Lake County. It is critical you share this with as many people as possible so we get the word out and get the individuals past the primary.
The ballots for the primary will be mailed out after the first of May so we only have about 2 weeks to get this circulated and get people out to vote. If you know of elected officials in other counties, please share as well to help influence them to conduct the extensive vetting and get the best candidates elected to represent us. Our vetting committee used the Montana Republican Party (Montana GOP) Platform to ensure the candidates agreed to the same standards as the party so no Rino’s would be elected.
Make sure to share!
Encourage Christians to Turn Out to Vote
At the March 13 Pachyderm meeting many concerned citizens came together to hear from author Charles Garner. The importance of Christians turning out to protect their values in the midterms cannot be emphasized enough. Charles will be back to speak at the LCRW meeting on April 6. – Save the date!
Remember, men are as welcome at this meeting as the women! Bring your husbands, friends, neighbors… The books written by Charles Garner will help in our quest. Charles will have copies available for purchase at a VERY affordable price.
Author’s Bio:
Charles Garner is an author, curriculum designer, and teacher to the church. His B.A. is in Biblical Studies and Social Science. He holds a Master of Religious Education with emphasis in Biblical Exegesis and Theology. He has authored, edited, or designed over fifty resources and books for use in the
Christian community. His works include A Canary in a Coal Mine co-authored with Dr. John Powers, Beyond Expectations, Profiles from Paul, and It’s NOT Adam’s Fault!.
His latest books, The Battle for the Republic and Called to Stand, reveal the sources of the weakening and destruction of the Republic and call on the Christian community to take on the full armor of God and stand their place along the battle line.
He and his wife, Nancy, live in the Northern Rockies of Montana.
Focus of the Meeting:
“The Battle for the Republic”
Every generation of believers faces a defining moment—a point when silence becomes betrayal and conviction demands a voice. The sixteenth century had its moment at Wittenberg, when one man’s courage broke the silence of a fearful church. We have come to that moment in our generation. The world we inhabit is different in form but not in nature. The idols have changed their faces; the heresies have traded old robes for new rhetoric; yet the spiritual war remains the same. The enemies of truth are not new—they are the old powers of pride, deception, and fear wearing modern names. It’s the oldest lie dressed up in a new suit of clothes.
America is not merely divided—it is being discipled.
Ideas once confined to the margins now shape classrooms, laws, media, and the moral imagination of a nation. Many Christians sense the shift but struggle to name it—much less respond faithfully. The Battle for the Republic reveals how biblical truth, civic responsibility, and moral courage were quietly eroded—and why this unraveling was not accidental, but strategic. Drawing from Scripture, history, and the structure of the American constitutional order, Charles Garner exposes the forces reshaping the culture while clarifying what Christian engagement is—and is not. This is not a call to rage, violence, or theocracy. It is a call to clarity, stewardship, and courage rooted in conviction. Written for pastors, leaders, and thoughtful believers, The Battle for the Republic equips the church to understand the conflict of our moment—and to stand without surrendering either faith or conscience. We are engaged in a spiritual war in which the very souls of people, the Republic, and the church are at stake. This is not a time for retreat or capitulation. It is a time to practice the disciplines of the faith, to put on the whole armor of God, and — having done all — to stand. We claim the field; we do not abandon it. The next Great Awakening will not be imported from history; it will ignite in a remnant who refuses to kneel to the spirit of this age and who bow to Christ alone.

Wield the Sword of TRUTH
What is the truth? Never hurts to check sources…
Can we trust that our freedom of religion will always be there? How do we work to ensure that it will? One truth that is hard to dispute is that freedom of religion can only be preserved if Christians get involved in politics. Preaching or following the gospel is not enough. We need the Christian community to be involved. Prayers alone cannot avert the attempts to cleave us from the Bible and the Constitution as well as the Christian values that it is founded on.
Charles Garner, historian and author, has talked extensively on the importance of encouraging our Christian friends to get involved, and we should not forget the book that he wrote to help us in that mission:
NOTE: Charles Garner is still working on waking up more voters. He has written two new books and told us about those at the Lake County Republican Women’s meeting on April 6.

Was Charlie an antisemite like some seem to claim? Did he turn AGAINST Israel? He may have criticized Israeli leadership, but does that make him an antisemite? Not according to his own words. Listen to what he says in a focus group with TPUSA chapter leaders. Was he for aggression in general or for the judicial system doing ITS job? In this group he clearly renounces added aggression.
Do not retreat from social media without a fight. Truth: ‘The front lines of this information war are on social media.’ (from the referenced letter)
General Flynn has reiterated this thought on all his platforms.

Encourage U.S. Senators to Pass the SAVE America Act
The U.S. House of Representatives finally passed the SAVE Act – it is now up to the Senate to do the same.
U.S. Senate Contact Information
_______________________________
Read the text of the SAVE Act (H.R. 22) HERE. The SAVE America Act is an expanded version that would require picture ID upon voting in a federal election (H.R. 7296).
The SAVE Act is to “amend the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 to require proof of United States citizenship to register an individual to vote in elections for Federal office, and for other purposes”. Without using his powers to protect critical infrastructure, the President can only affect FEDERAL elections, not state elections. As called for in the above poster, drastic measures are needed in addition to the SAVE Act. Plenty of loopholes to plug to truly secure honesty in election systems.
The SAVE Act is a great bill to help honesty in elections in the future, but it will not automatically clean already compromised voter rolls. That means the rolls are what they are for the midterms, unless they are properly purged no later than 3 months before the elections.
Preventing more illegals from being added to voter rolls is a must, of course!
Federal law defines ‘critical infrastructure’ at 42 U.S.C., paragraph 5195c (e), and DHS designated election infrastructure as a critical infrastructure subsector on January 6, 2017. (Designation HERE)

Promethean Action
A new movement has been started recently in support of the current administration’s policies, Promethean Action. Analyses of policies, as well as support offered for grassroots action. Weeks ago, the group reportedly had 70,000 followers, mostly in America, but also from other parts of the world.
100s of thousands have now subscribed, finding common sense voices in the middle of an intentionally created chaos.

Or the website HERE.
Midweek update from February 18: “A fight you need to be part of.” Hear Barbara Boyd lay out what we are facing ahead of midterms, and what the Trump administration is very well aware of and pushing back on.
In the Thursday Q and A sessions, many listeners have chimed in by sending in questions ahead of time by email or asking them during the show in chat. Last Thursday’s subject: Trump vs. the Fed; The Final Battle for America’s Economy.
The leaders of this movement, Susan Kokinda and Barbara Boyd, give knowledgeable assessments on what is going on in politics. A very interesting recap of the President’s speech in Davos, for one. If you are among those wondering why the President does what he does, these videos may give you a new understanding. As of January 22, they had gathered 400,000 subscribers – up from 70,000 just days earlier.

MTCAG: Water and Power Alert – What You Can Do!
Alert from Montana Citizens Action Group – Affecting Flathead and Lake counties and other areas of Montana
Think we had a lake water level problem before? Think your power bills are high now? Quietly slipping through the bureaucratic hands in an effort to stay out of the public eye are large data centers for POLSON, Missoula, Great Falls, Bozeman, Helena, and Billings. A contract for INITIAL 50 megawatts of power from the Kerr Dam, and an undisclosed quantity of water, have been slated for the data center in Polson. The Governor, in collaboration with out of state business entities, the CSKT, and Daines among other legislators, have promoted and signed off non-publicized deals on data centers in Montana, including one for the Polson area getting water and power from the Kerr Dam and Flathead river and lake. In June of 2025, it was publicized that Northwestern Energy was in negotiations for multiple data centers, with little disclosed on exactly who, where, and how much water and energy would be used and what impact it would have, but the initial contracts are for 1400 megawatts in 2026 to three data center companies (that’s the equivalent to 800k-1million homes). It has been near impossible to get information, but Quantum Investors and Bitzero have both made claims of opening data centers in Montana in 2026, including, “rural areas.” The purpose of the data centers are for both AI and/or bitcoin mining. The national data center map shows currently three buildings in Billings, one in Bozeman, one in Butte, and TWENTY data center buildings in Great Falls. This map only shows facilities that have been publicized and on record for at least six months, which means it does not show proposed centers nor centers in progress or not publicized. However, Northwestern Energy has already told the Montana Public Service Commission that they expect to provide utilities to these data centers starting in JANUARY 2026. A call to Kerr Dam had a representative inform me directly they are expecting to provide services sometime in spring of 2026.
SO WHO CARES?
If you have not been following the impacts of this, a recent study found that data centers in the US consumed more water than all the water bottling facilities (that was only what was found). There has been no identification of how much water would be needed for these Montana facilities, but if we are already having historic low lake levels because of drought, what will happen when we have a drought year and then have to meet the massive water demands of these centers? There has been zero information provided to the affected public on this.
Additionally, the costs of building and maintaining the electric grid to power the centers is generally being pawned off to the rest of the customer base. Some residents around the country saw 500% increase in their power bills. Why? Because if it took $5 million to upgrade the power grid infrastructure, the data center wasn’t held solely responsible and the cost was split equally among all the customers, with the data center representing only one customer! Northwestern Energy has already been confirming deals with these data centers, with no word whatsoever on how they would split any bill. This means that without public pressure, YOUR BILL would carry the tag of whatever cost it took to provide power to a single private business.
WHAT IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS?
Montana law requires that Northwestern Energy show that there is no long term impact to customers from new large load contracts. In September 2025, Northwestern Energy stated they would not adhere to this as well as not offer opportunity for public comment or input. Gianforte and Daines, among the other parties leading this effort, are staying out of it and letting it all slide, as they are the ones who invited the data centers in the first place. At the end of November, a group of non-profits filed a petition with the Montana Public Service Commission asking to create a separate business classification for data centers, ensuring any costs associated with them are billed only to them. In response, Northwestern Energy filed a legal motion to acquire a protective order in disclosing any information in these contracts. There can be no other reason other than fear that the details will show that Northwestern Energy could break laws and/or confirm significant impacts to utility customers as well as water impacts.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
1) Swarm Gianforte and Daines about the subject. If they aren’t going to act in their constituents favor, let them know no more votes for them!
2) Contact the Montana Public Service Commission and have them hold Northwestern Energy accountable to law. Each region has an ELECTED Commissioner. Contact them and tell them to advocate on your behalf, or no more votes for them!
3) Contact the Attorney General’s office and have them look into any and all breaches of Montana law around anyone involved with data centers.
4) Contact Zinke’s office (DC 202-225-5628, Kalispell 406-317-0027) and Sheehy’s office (DC 202-224-2264, Kalispell 406-257-3398). Call BOTH offices of each representative as the person answering the phone may not forward your complaint depending on who it is on what day at what location.
INFORMATION VERIFICATION
I do not know everything about this matter, nor do I have all the answers. The information in my write up is my personal summary that comes from about a dozen sources I found through numerous types of searches. I also called the Kerr Dam directly upon which they verified some of this info as well. I reached out to some contacts with different agencies who were also able to point me to some of this info. Overall, the information has been difficult to find and I’ve been given the runaround by representatives and Northwestern Energy. If you are looking to have me verify every bit of information for you, I won’t. I have put my time into this subject and given my summary of the information I have been able to find. I am not here to spend my time doing all of the work for you outside of informing you of my findings. I will give some links that can start you on the track, but if you’ve followed my posts before, I believe each person needs to follow their own research for their own conclusions if they question the author of a summary. Again, the limited links I am providing is only a fraction of what I found and does not represent the entirety of my sources.
