Voter registration information

In Montana you can register to vote 30 days before an election. Due to recent voting law changes, if you want to register after that deadline you can register and vote at your county courthouse up to and including election day -- click here to learn more about late registration. Check out Montana Women Vote's Steps to Voting Guide to help you through the process.

• You can vote in Montana if you have been convicted of a felony as long as you are not in prison or a pre-release facility. Make sure to exercise your rights.
• You must re-register to vote if you have moved so that you can vote in your current precinct.  Re-registration with your new address is especially important now that more counties are moving toward using all mail local elections to ensure that you will receive your ballot.
• You can vote by mail in Montana. Many people feel that it is easier to vote from home where they have time to carefully look over the ballot. See Montana Women Vote's Steps to Voting Guide for how to vote by mail and/or fill out this absentee ballot request and mail it to your county's elections office –listed on page two.
