5 candidates filed for Senate District No. 01 in the 2026 Montana election cycle. This document covers that race only.

## Who ran for Senate District No. 01 in 2026

| Candidate | Party | Residence county | Own document |
|---|---|---|---|
| [Jonathan Jameson](/people/jonathan-jameson-g253047/) | Democratic | Lincoln | Yes |

A candidate marked "Not yet" has no document of their own in this corpus. The records filed under their name are not yet confirmed as one complete profile. A page built from part of the records would understate the career and the money, so none is published until the profile is complete. The absence of a page is not a finding that the candidate raised or spent nothing.

This record does not say who won Senate District No. 01 in 2026. CERS records candidacies and money, not election results.
