Quiet Beaverhead election yields slim turnout and mixed results
In Beaverhead County the 1930s style vote shows less than half of electors voting. Democrats gain new state and local posts while Republicans win several county contests. Countywide races reveal Lanstrum leading Walsh and Rankin trailing. Democrats claim the first representative in 23 years and predictions favor Walsh in the state senate race.
