    Hmmm, it seems that Gianforte doesn't want to face any questions today.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------


    The Montana congressional candidate accused of assaulting a reporter hasn't been seen or heard from Thursday as voters go to the polls.

    Repeated phone calls to Greg Gianforte's cellphone went unreturned Thursday. Twice it appeared someone picked up then immediately hung up.

    His home in Bozeman is set back on property along the Gallatin River and isn't very visible from the road. Its gate was half-opened, with a sign thanking people for not trespassing.

    People at Gianforte's campaign headquarters referred all questions to spokesman Shane Scanlon, who was not there. No one answered the door at Scanlon's home.

    Gianforte has backed out of at least one planned television appearance. MSNBC's "MTP Daily" says he canceled on the show.

    I've heard that Montana has early voting. So, about half of the votes are already in, just not counted.

    I've read different percentages on the early voting. Montana is a big state and some folk have long distances to drive to vote. Early voting is a good idea. The should change the law so a person can change their vote if they change their mind.
