Ballots in Montana’s primary election must be received by county election offices by 8:00 PM on Tuesday, June 2, in order to be counted. The Montana Supreme Court overturned an earlier ruling by a district court judge that had suspended this deadline for this spring’s primary election. Voters are advised to drop their ballots off in person at their county election office, to ensure that the ballots are not delayed in the mail.
