Daines Defeats Curtis in Montana U.S. Senate Race - Daines’ victory gives Republicans a Senate seat that they have not held in more than a century.

Republican U.S. Rep. Steve Daines has defeated Democrat Amanda Curtis to win Montana’s U.S. Senate election.

Daines’ victory Tuesday gives Republicans a Senate seat that they have not held in more than a century. Republicans sought to gain at least six seats to win control of the Senate.

Daines, a first-term congressman from Bozeman, won voters over by emphasizing more jobs and less government. His campaign spent millions of dollars to spread that message.
