The Missoula County Elections Office is working to update precincts and polling place locations to accurately reflect changes in population and voter needs. Most voters will not see a change to their polling place, and voters will still be able to choose to vote by mail. Voters in Evaro, a section of Lolo and certain parts of the City of Missoula may see changes to where they can vote on Election Day.

Your polling place may have changed for several reasons: the building could have been difficult to access or too small for the number of voters it serves, or the entity that owns the building may have asked that it not be a polling location anymore. The Elections Office has worked with the County’s GIS Division to generate proposed changes that balances these considerations with voters’ needs.

The commissioners opened the hearing on the proposed precinct boundaries and polling locations and commissioner district boundaries at their public meeting on Sept 7, and made a final decision at their public meeting on Nov. 30.

Following the commissioners’ decision, the Missoula County Elections Office will inform voters of the changes and mail out new voter registration cards to all active voters if they are affected by a change. These cards will not be mailed out until after the final decision on Nov. 30. Voters will see the impact of new precincts and house districts during the 2024 election cycle.
