Montana HB179 revises election laws to clarify conditions for moving voters from inactive to active status.
Montana HB179 amends the state's election laws to specify that an elector's name must be moved from the inactive list to the active list if they appear at a polling place to vote, submit an application to vote by absentee ballot, notify the county election administrator of their current residence, or complete a reactivation form with current address information. The bill clarifies that signing a petition for a statewide ballot issue does not move an elector from the inactive to the active list. This act is effective upon passage.
