Presidential Visit
President Barack Obama will be visiting Bozeman on Aug. 14 to hold a town hall meeting at an airport hanger there, according to 4&20 blackbirds and KECI.
The Bozeman City Commission confirmed the visit at a meeting Tuesday evening. From KECI:
Obama made several visits to Montana during the Democratic presidential primaries and run-up to the general election last year in an attempt flip a state that traditionally votes Republican in presidential elections. He ended up losing the state to Sen. John McCain, 49 percent to 47 percent.
