The two candidates in the 2020 race for Montana's lone U.S. House seat—Republican Matt Rosendale and Democrat Kathleen Williams—met for a debate hosted by MTN News on Saturday.

Rosendale, Montana's Republican state auditor, is making his second bid to become a member of Montana's congressional delegation. Rosendale came close in his 2018 bid to unseat Sen. Jon Tester.

Williams, a Democrat from Bozeman, is making her second bid to represent Montana in the U.S. House. The former three-term state legislator came up short in her bid to upset Congressman Greg Gianforte in 2018.

The debate was moderated by a panel featuring MTN Chief Political Reporter Mike Dennison, Jay Kohn (KTVQ Billings Anchor Emeritus), and Jill Valley (KPAX Missoula/Kalispell Anchor and Reporter).

You can watch the full debate in the media player above. It is also available, along with all the 2020 Face the State debates, on all MTN streaming apps.
