蒙大拿州最高法院艾米·埃迪赢18个百分点 自由派多数得以维持
据选票百科（Ballotpedia）11月11日刊发的选举分析，蒙大拿州最高法院法官艾米·埃迪在11月3日的无党派大选中击败丹·威尔逊，赢得约18个百分点，成功接替即将离任的大法官贝丝·贝克，威尔逊得票约41%。两人目前同为蒙大拿州第11司法区法院法官，该辖区覆盖该州北部的弗拉特黑德县。威尔逊自称保守派，并获得共和党方面背书；贝克与埃迪则被外界视为法院自由派阵营成员。
蒙大拿州自2021年以来由共和党全面执政，但州最高法院自贝克2010年首次当选前就一直保持4比3的自由派多数。此次选举结果意味着自由派多数至少还将维持两年。2028年将有另外两个席位改选，分别是自由派阵营的吉姆·希亚大法官与保守派阵营的劳里·麦金农大法官，届时法院多数归属可能再生变数。
Amy Eddy Wins Montana Supreme Court Race by About 18 Points
Amy Eddy has won election to the Montana Supreme Court, defeating Dan Wilson by about 18 percentage points, according to results reported Nov. 11; Wilson took roughly 41 percent of the vote. Eddy will succeed retiring Justice Beth Baker. Both candidates served as judges in the 11th Judicial District in Flathead County. The result preserves the court's 4-3 liberal majority. Two more seats, held by Justices Shea and McKinnon, will be on the ballot in 2028. Eddy campaigned on her trial-court experience and pledged to keep the court independent of partisan politics.
