The Montana Secretary of State's office is sending out post cards to residents announcing a new election security program.

Less than 48 hours after the Montana Supreme Court stopped a first-of-its-kind constitutional measure that would prohibit corporations from spending money on political candidates or ballot issues, the Transparent Election Initiative in Montana resubmitted a revised proposal that its leaders said honored the court’s ruling and simplified the motion.

Top court unanimously says first-of-its kind measure violates ‘single-subject’ rule; group says it’ll re-file the proposal.

The Montana Supreme Court has rejected a proposed ballot measure intended to block corporations from spending on political campaigns – but the sponsors of the measure say they plan to try again.

The filing came just two days after the state Supreme Court found an earlier version of the initiative legally insufficient.

Midterm elections are still months away, but the race for Montana’s western congressional district is already heating up.

Montana is once again in an election year. But chances are the election hasn’t felt as ever-present this time around.

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) - There’s a number of significant issues and federal positions at stake in the 2026 midterm. The most-watched race in the region will be for Montana’s Senate seat as Senator Steve Daines’ seat is up. Montana also has two house seats up for election, currently held by Troy Downing and Ryan Zinke.

If the hope among Democrats for a decisive blue wave in the 2026 midterms has a chance of coming to pass, the party would likely have to win difficult House contests in redder parts of the country. Montana's 1st Congressional District may prove to be the test case for whether that can happen.
