(Re)Check your voter registration

Don't wait for October (let alone November!)

Check your voter registration status through My Voter Page.

You found your registration. Now check it.

  • Make sure your status says Active, your name is correct, and your residential address is where you currently live. Your voter-registration address does not have to match the address printed on your driver's license.

  • If you vote by mail, also check your mailing/absentee information.

Something wrong or not registered? Fix it now.

  • Complete a Montana Voter Registration Application and mark Name Change, Address Change, Signature Update, or Other.

  • Print it, sign it by hand, and return it to Gallatin County Elections. Before 5 p.m. October 5, changes can be submitted through the regular registration process.

  • Beginning October 6, changes must be made in person at Gallatin County Elections, 311 W. Main St., Room 210, Bozeman.

  • Questions? Call 406-582-3060.

Why check more than once?

Registration records can change for ordinary reasons: you moved, changed your name, updated your information, election mail was returned as undeliverable, or an administrative or data-entry error occurred.

There are also processes under state and federal law for maintaining voter rolls and challenging voter eligibility, and in 2026, there’s a lot of pre-election political maneuvering that could lead to changes to voter rolls.

Most voters will check and find that everything is exactly as it should be. The point isn’t to expect a problem; it’s to catch one while there’s still plenty of time to solve it.

Think of it like checking a flight reservation: check when you make your plan, check again before you leave, and confirm the details when it matters.

We recommend:

  1. Check now: Is my registration active and accurate?

  2. Check again before ballots are mailed / early voting begins: Is everything still correct, and were any changes I submitted processed?

  3. Check shortly before you vote: Am I still active, is my address correct, and do I know where/how I’m voting?

And for mail voters, there’s an additional reason to return to My Voter Portal after ballots go out: you can check your ballot status, not merely your registration.
