Rep Powers leaving campaign literature on a door in Columbia Falls
One way to campaign during a pandemic is to drop campaign literature on voter’s doors. Instead of knocking on doors, campaign volunteers have been leaving literature. At times, volunteers have been able to have socially-distanced conversations with voters who are enjoying the summer weather in their yards. Some people have called the number on the flier to ask questions and have had good conversations with Representative Powers.
Rep Powers working at Cyclone Lookout
There are many ways to serve one’s community. Representative Debo Powers volunteers as a fire lookout every summer at Cyclone Lookout near Polebridge.
Powers For The People campaign workers have been leaving campaign literature on doors in Montana House District 3. Campaigning safely during the pandemic is difficult, but literature can be left (without knocking on the door) while maintaining social distance.
Rep Powers speaking at Interlocal
Representative Powers spoke at the North Fork Interlocal meeting in Sondreson Community Hall north of Polebridge. The Interlocal is held twice a year as a way to facilitate communication between North Fork landowners and the various agencies who manage public land in the North Fork. 96% of the land in the North Fork is public land which is why it remains remote and fairly undeveloped. The meeting, which usually packs the Hall to overflowing, was purposefully kept to under 50 people this year. Almost everyone at the meeting wore masks in order to protect each other during the COVID pandemic.
Powers For The People campaign celebrated the 4th of July in Polebridge, Montana in House District 3. Although the official parade was cancelled, Representative Powers joined a “spontaneous eruption of patriotic fervor” and participated in the “Freedom Cruise” through Polebridge.

Representative Powers in Triathlon
Representative Powers participated in a Triathlon with constituents in House District 3. The Triathlon consisted of hiking (11.5 miles), mountain biking (16 miles), paddling the North Fork of the Flathead River (10 miles). This was a different type of “campaign trail.”
Montana Democratic Convention on Zoom
This week was a busy week for conventions. On Wednesday, the Flathead County Democratic Convention was held on Zoom. Representative Debo Powers was chosen as a delegate to the Montana Democratic Convention also held on Zoom. Friday was the platform convention where the State Democratic Platform was revised and approved. Saturday was the delegate convention where delegates to the national convention were chosen. Although delegates would have rather met in person to conduct business, the COVID crisis required holding the conventions on Zoom.
