Montana

What is on Montana's ballot on Nov 3, 2026, 25 days from now.

Senate

United States Senate

Montana — Senate

One of Montana's two Senate seats is on the ballot this cycle. Which of its two senators holds that seat is not shown, because The Record cannot currently establish it. Senate classes belong to seats rather than to states, so naming the right senator needs each one's official term-end date, and Congress.gov does not publish one for a sitting member. Both senators are listed below; the candidate filings are from the FEC and are accurate.

Before You Vote

Registration deadlines, polling places, early voting, and what is actually printed on your ballot are all set by your state, not by any of this. Your state's election office is the authoritative source for every one of them.
