The lowest bar is a photo ID with your name and a proof of address. School, tribal, concealed carry, as well as drivers licenses (both Real tm and old school) IDs are acceptable.
Didn’t mail your absentee ballot in time?
If you have an absentee ballot on Election Day bring it with you to a poll and drop it off. It will be included in the count that day with the rest of the collected ballots from that polling place.
Montana’s ballot history.
If anyone knows the story of how these changes happened in the 2025 Montana Legislative Session let me know. Leave a comment.
