Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.) announced on Feb. 9 that he is running for the Senate this year, setting up a primary battle for vulnerable Democrat Sen. Jon Tester’s seat.

In a video posted on X, formerly Twitter, Mr. Rosendale said he is running as a Washington outsider—despite already being a member of Congress.
