In Montana, there are currently three active proposals for constitutional amendments that would require state judicial elections to remain nonpartisan.

Three lawsuits have been filed against the attorney general over ballot language rewrites to three issues that aim to keep judicial races in Montana nonpartisan, following on the heels of a legislative session where lawmakers brought several bills aimed at doing the opposite.

A new Montana law requiring a voter’s birth year has led to county election officials rejecting an abnormal number of ballots for this year’s local elections.

Voters in cities and towns across Montana will elect municipal leaders and decide local ballot measures Nov. 4. These are the races and issues MTFP’s staff is keeping an eye

BILLINGS — A new Montana law requires the birth year to be listed on absentee ballots as part of the voting process. The law was sponsored by state Rep. Braxton Mitchell, a Columbia Falls Republican, who confirmed with MTN on the phone Thursday afternoon that he hopes it can provide an extra layer of security to increase voter integrity.

Opinion: The Nov. 4 municipal general election is an all mail ballot election. There will be no polling locations on Election Day.
