A New Way for Montanans to Register to Vote: Online Pre-Registration

The Secretary of State’s office is now offering an online pre-registration tool which allows qualified citizens to enter and submit their registration information online via a computer, tablet or smartphone.

“The pre-registration tool was created to increase accuracy and efficiency of the voter registration process,” Secretary McCulloch said. “It’s important for people using this tool to remember that they still must go into the county election office (or designated location for late registration) where their online submission will be processed just as a paper form is processed, and they will sign  the registration form provided by the election administrator in order to receive their ballot.”

Full online voter registration has not yet been implemented in Montana; anyone submitting their registration information using this online tool must still go into the county election office or designated late registration location and sign the registration form before they are legally registered to vote.

The online pre-registration tool can be found on the Secretary of State’s website.
