The Flathead County Republican Central Committee has endorsed the primary opponents of two GOP lawmakers seeking reelection to the state Legislature after both opted against participating in the group’s endorsement process.
Among the candidates to earn the central committee’s backing are Shaun Pandina, who is running against Rep. Courtenay Sprunger, R-Kalispell, in House District 7, and Lukas Schubert, who is trying to unseat Rep. Tony Brockman, R-Evergreen, in House District 8.
Pandina, who launched an unsuccessful school board bid in Kalispell last year, describes himself as an entrepreneur on his campaign website. Schubert is a political neophyte, graduating from Glacier High School in 2023.
