flag Dr. Mike Eisenhauer, a Montana cardiologist, is running as an independent for Congress, citing gridlock and seeking to represent moderates disillusioned with both major parties.

flag Dr. Mike Eisenhauer, a 62-year-old cardiologist and former U.S. Army physician from Great Falls, Montana, has launched an independent bid for Montana’s 2nd Congressional District in 2026, citing congressional gridlock and partisan polarization. flag He aims to represent a growing moderate majority disillusioned with both major parties, criticizing recent health care and spending policies. flag To qualify, he must collect 7,274 valid signatures—required of independents but not major party candidates—under Montana’s new law, which he calls overly burdensome. flag The race includes incumbent Republican Troy Downing and two Democrats, while speculation continues about University of Montana President Seth Bodnar potentially running for Senate as an independent.
