Missoula Democrat Shane Morigeau running for state auditor post
State Rep. Shane Morigeau announced Sunday he is running for state auditor in 2020.
Morigeau, a Democrat from Missoula, is the first from his party to launch a campaign for the position. Big Sky businessman Troy Downing, a Republican, is also running.

Morigeau said Saturday that he’s seeking the auditor’s job because he wants to make health insurance more affordable for Montanans and increase business opportunities in the state.
