Montana Republican Rep. Matt Rosendale will seek reelection to the House, he announced in a statement Wednesday.
Rosendale launched a Senate campaign earlier this month, only to drop it after less than a week following former President Donald Trump’s endorsement of his primary opponent, Tim Sheehy.
But he was undecided on whether he would seek reelection to his eastern Montana House seat. Several candidates have filed, believing Rosendale would run for Senate. It’s not clear if they would remain in the primary if the incumbent ran again.
