Yes. Montana has open primaries. In an open primary, any registered voter can participate in any party's primary election, regardless of their own party affiliation. Independent voters can vote in any state with an open primary system without registering as a partisan.
Montana only offers in-person and by mail voter registration. Additionally, there is no automatic voter registration. Montana has an open primary, allowing all voters to choose which primary ballot they want. Voters must be registered to vote by noon the day before the election, but there is an election day registration option. Early in-person voting begins 30 days before an election, and Montana has no-excuse absentee by-mail.
Yes, it can be. In some states, independent voters face barriers like closed primaries that exclude them unless they change their party registration each election. Others offer open primaries, allowing all voters to participate regardless of party. Some states make registration seamless with same-day options, while others require voters to plan weeks or even months ahead.
Navigating these challenges takes awareness and action—but that’s exactly why the Independent Center exists. We’re here to empower independent voters, break down barriers, and build a movement for real change. Join us and make your voice heard.
