Stephens dumps Judge HELENA (AP) — Republican Stan Stephens, a Canadian Immigrant who came to Montana to harvest wheat 39 years ago and decided to stay, was elected Montana's 17th governor Tuesday by defeating Democrat Thomas Judge. His surprisingly easy victory marked the QOP's return to the governor's mansion after 20 years of Democratic domination. Stephens was declared the winner statewide shortly before midnight, however at 2 a.m. the two were tied In Missoula County with 48.74 per­ cent of Missoullans voting for Stephens and 48.24 for Judge with 13,189 votes tallied. With half of the statewide votes counted, Ste­ phens and running mate Allen Kolstad, a state senator from Chester, had 96,273 votes, or 53 percent. Judge, who served as governor In the 1970s and ran with Judith Basin County Commissioner Barb Skelton, had 86,314 votes, or 47 percent. Libertarian Willie Dee Morris, a Butte attorney, garnered about 2 percent of the vote. Stephens claimed broad support from across the state, winning in 38 of 55 counties reporting.
