HELENA, MT - Montana Republican Party Executive Director Danielle Bradley (Tribble) has stepped down from her position after serving in the role since 2021.
Bradley oversaw the MTGOP during the 2022 election cycle where Montanans elected two republican members to the U.S. House of Representatives after re-gaining a second congressional seat. Also in that year, Montanans sent a republican supermajority to the state legislature for the 2023 legislative session.
Most recently, Bradley oversaw the MTGOP and its operations during the historic 2024 election cycle—defeating former U.S. Senator Jon Tester and achieving single party dominance in Montana for the first time in nearly 100 years. She provided the following statement:
“It has been an honor to serve as the Executive Director of the Montana Republican Party the last three and a half years. I am incredibly grateful for Chairman Kaltschmidt trusting in me to help achieve these historic victories,” Bradley said. “The Republican Party in Montana has been tremendously successful under his leadership, and I look forward to seeing the organization build on our accomplishments.”
MTGOP Chairman Don “K” Kaltschmidt offered the statement below following Bradley’s departure:
“Danielle is one of the best people I have had the pleasure of working with over the years. We worked together daily to achieve the goals that we set for the Party, and her work as the Executive Director was exemplary,” Kaltschmidt said. “She was a great leader, a team member, and she will be sorely missed. She will do great in whatever she decides to do going forward.”
Chairman Kaltschmidt has selected Tyler Newcombe as Bradley’s replacement.
Tyler brings both political and management experience to the MTGOP where he will be responsible for overseeing the organization and implementing Chairman Kaltschmidt’s vision to support our Republican candidates.
Newcombe provided the following statement after being selected as the incoming Executive Director:
“I am grateful for the opportunity to help build upon the great victories the Montana Republican Party has had. I am looking forward to continuing to build a strong party that is prepared to deliver wins for republican candidates up and down the ballot.”
