Which Presidential candidates are on Montana's election ballot?
GREAT FALLS — Did the Montana Secretary of State (SOS) fail to include a candidate on the ballot for the November 2024 election?
According to a news release from the SOS office – no.
In response to several reports that Vice-President Kamala Harris was not on the Montana ballot, MTN News contacted the SOS office on Monday for answers.
The agency replied that Harris and all certified candidates appear on Montana’s ballots (as shown in the sample ballot screenshot above), and as voters will see on their own sample ballots in the very near future.
In a news release, the SOS office said:
Contrary to egregious misinformation campaigns circulating online, the Montana Secretary of State’s Office certified all qualified candidates to appear on its 2024 General Election ballot on August 22. A list of certified candidates can be found online at VoteMT.gov.
The 2024 General Election officially began on Friday for eligible voters covered under the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA).
Shortly after going live at 8 a.m., election officials were notified about Montana’s Electronic Absentee System (EAS), which is the system exclusively used by a small number of eligible UOCAVA (e.g. Military serving abroad and overseas citizens) voters to access and mark their ballot. The Secretary of State’s Office took the EAS offline while working with the vendor until troubleshooting was completed. By Friday afternoon, the system was back online and available to eligible UOCAVA voters, including those few voters who may have been impacted.
No ballots were affected, including those that will be sent to registered absentee voters and those that will be presented to voters at the polling place on Election Day.
As always, voters should rely on Montana’s trusted sources for credible election information, including the Secretary of State’s Office and the state’s 56 county election offices.
The Secretary of State’s Office appreciates the vendor’s quick troubleshooting and resolution. The Montana Elections Team is grateful to our Montana military members serving abroad, and we’re honored to serve them, their families, and overseas citizens.
Here is a screenshot of the names on the ballot:

Montana app development teams from Code Girls United win Congressional App Challenge
KALISPELL, Mont. — Two app development teams from Code Girls United won the Congressional App Challenge in both Montana districts.
A team with Lily Kirkaldie, Charlie Kotthoff, and Danica Sabo from Great Falls won with their app ‘Cursive Create’.
The app helps teach cursive writing, which the team said is important since cursive is no longer taught in schools.
Three senior students from Browning High School, Aiyahna Green, Kalani Sun Rhodes, and Keesha Guerrero-Gobert, won with their app ‘Sspomo’.
This app provides awareness and resources for people facing mental health challenges, and was inspired by the Blackfeet tribe.
“They were really thoughtful about their community and what was affecting the people that they knew on the reservation, and what they could actually do to help them,” said Code Girls United CEO Marianne Smith.
“What they were seeing in the community was depression and other mental health issues, so they specifically wanted to create an app that would be able to help people that were in that same situation,” said Smith.
Both teams will travel to Washington D.C. for the National Science Fair’s ‘House of Code’, where they will showcase their apps in the U.S. Capitol.

The event is scheduled for April 21 and 22.

Montana state auditor staff heads to Libby to address property questions
LIBBY, Mont. — Residents impacted by last December’s flooding and windstorms had the opportunity to get answers Monday as the Montana State Auditor’s Office hosted an open house in Libby.
The event was aimed at helping homeowners across Libby, Troy and the surrounding areas surrounding in Lincoln County navigate insurance claims and recovery efforts following the severe weather that caused widespread damage.
Staff from the Montana State Auditor’s Office were on hand to answer questions from residents dealing with property and casualty insurance claims tied to the storms.
“People here in Libby and Troy and all across Lincoln County were victims of these horrible weather events that we’ve had,” said David Sanders, chief of staff for the Montana State Auditor’s Office. “A lot of people had property and casualty claims on their homes.”
According to the Auditor’s Office, consumer protection and education are key components of the recovery process.
In addition to speaking directly with residents, officials also met with community leaders and toured damaged areas to better understand the impact of the storms.
“We just wanted to make sure that we could pull people together and show them that they are not alone,” Sanders said. “The state government can help them with some of the information they require to put their lives back together.”
The Montana State Auditor’s Office says events like this help connect residents with valuable resources as communities continue to recover from natural disasters.
