Montana Democrats Demand To See GOP Senate Candidate's Birth Certificate
The Democratic Party of Montana is calling on GOP Rep. Steve Daines, who is running in the state's high-profile Senate race this year, to release his birth certificate -- echoing the "birther" strategy employed against President Barack Obama.
Daines has alternately asserted that he is third-generation Montanan and fifth-generation Montanan, though he was born in California.
"No matter what generation Congressman Daines claims to be, he's a stranger to both the facts and Montana values -- and Montanans deserve the truth," Bryce Bennett, a Democratic Montana state Representative, said in a statement. "Montanans can't afford a Washington politician who thinks he can get away with fooling the people he's supposed to represent."
The statement continues, reading "Congressman Daines has to get his bio straight."
