Seth Bodnar
I · U.S. Senate, Montana · not rated
No documented position on Israel and Palestine found. A former Green Beret, Rhodes Scholar, GE executive and University of Montana president running as an independent who pledges not to caucus with either party, he campaigns on housing and health-care costs, corruption, public lands and ending the Iran war, which he opposes on war-powers and cost grounds.
Not rated: his campaign platform and priorities pages, his Ballotpedia survey, Montana Free Press's March 2026 questionnaire, his MTPR and KTVQ interviews, his podcast and cable interviews, coverage of the September 2026 Senate debate and the October 11 Montana Broadcasters Association debate contain nothing on Israel, Gaza or Palestine; asked by KTVQ how the U.S. should approach “the ongoing conflict in Iran, the Middle East,” he spoke only about Iran and Congress’s war powers. He left iVoterGuide’s 2026 questionnaire unanswered, including its Israel question, and coverage of the 2024 Gaza protests at the University of Montana records no statement of his as its president. Unrated until a position is stated.
