Story summary
  • Montana voters are backing a ballot measure to ban dark-money political spending.
  • The measure would test the 2010 Citizens United ruling on corporate and union spending.
  • A former Republican governor and a Democratic senator are co-campaigning for it.
  • Jeff Mangan said, “I haven’t talked to a person yet that doesn’t think there’s too much money in politics.”
  • Supporters say the corporate-regulation language offers a legal path to overturn Citizens United.
