The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) released an ad on Friday highlighting allegations of Montana Democrat Gov. Steve Bullock’s (D) “record of cronyism” and “corruption” while he was governor.
The NRSC ad detailed how Bullock’s brother, Bill Bullock, founded Pioneer Technical Services (PTS). Bill Bullock is the chairman of the company’s board. The NRSC said during Steve Bullock’s time as governor, his administration paid more than $14 million to his brother’s company.
The narrator said in the ad:

Steve Bullock and his brother have a special relationship.
Bullock has been accused of steering state grants to his brother’s company.

Sen. Steve Daines’ (R-MT) campaign released a campaign ad in which Wibaux County, Montana Sheriff Shane Harrington claimed Bullock stands with the liberal mob on defunding the police, erasing American history, and turning America into a socialist country.
Harrington said:

That’s why Bullock’s been silent on when leftwing radicals try to defund the police, erase our history, and turn America into a socialist country.
Daines recently told Breitbart News Daily host Alex Marlow he and the Senate Republican majority are the “firewall for freedom” that protects the country from the liberal mob.
“Steve Bullock doesn’t share our Montana values, he’s with the liberal mob,” Harrington added.
