ARLEE, Mont. — More than a dozen trained volunteers fanned out across 19 of Missoula County’s 22 polling stations on June 4, fixing their eyes not on the results of inter-party primary battles but on the election process itself. Their presence constituted the trial run of thea new effort by a pair of former political heavyweights in Montana ’s election integrity debate to combat misinformation with firsthand nonpartisan insight.
Heading into the 2023 session, Montana was primed for a pitched policy debate over the integrity and security of its election process. Now the conversation among lawmakers has kicked loose questions about trust, perception and how extensive the case for change truly is. The report produced from last week’s observations concluded that Missoula voters could “take pride in a well-administered in-person voting process.” But observers, who were trained in the various laws, regulations and procedures pertinent to elections, did note several specific areas for improvement.
