Incumbent state Rep. Tony Brockman, R-Evergreen, sparred with his GOP challenger Lukas Schubert over who was more fit to serve House District 8 during a candidate forum Wednesday.
“I think that it is important that you hear from me regarding … a number of statements that my primary opponent has made about me,” Brockman said during his introduction at the forum, organized by the Northwest Montana Association of Realtors and the Evergreen Chamber of Commerce.
Brockman accused Schubert of saying he is an atheist, that he is funded by the same donors that back Democratic gubernatorial candidate Ryan Busse and that he had no role in securing money for sidewalks along U.S. 2 in Evergreen.
