Lynda Moss is a Democratic former member of the Montana Senate. She represented District 26 from 2004 to 2012. She was a Majority Whip in the 2008-2010 session. She was ineligible to run for election in 2012 due to Montana's term limits.

In 2012 she ran for Montana Public Service Commissioner[1] but did not advance in the primaries.

In November 2017, Moss announced her candidacy for the U.S. House representing Montana's at-large congressional district in the 2018 U.S. federal election.[2] She dropped out of the race in April 2018, after the deadline to have her name removed from the ballot.[3] She ended the primary in 4th place with 5,592 votes.[4]
