Ralph Nader may make the ballot here in Montana for the 2008 Presidential election according to an Associated Press article.

This can’t be good news for Barack Obama.

In the 2000 General Election, “Green Party” candidate Ralph Nader took 6% of the vote in Montana. Nader received 24,437 votes, by far the strongest showing for a third party candidate for President in Montana that year. Nader took 15% of the vote in Missoula County in 2000.

In the 2004 General Election, “Independent” candidate Nader received 6,168 votes, again the strongest showing for a third party candidate.
