HELENA, Mont. — In accordance with the provisions of 13-10-208, Montana Code Annotated, Montana Secretary of State Christi Jacobsen has certified to county election administrators the names and designations of candidates who have filed with the secretary of state. 

Pursuant to statute, legislative candidates and non-legislative (federal, statewide, and district) candidates were certified. Thursday also marked the deadline for election administrators to certify for the ballot the names of local candidates and local ballot issues.

“Congratulations to the candidates who have officially been certified, and thank you for your dedication to serving our great state,” said Secretary Jacobsen. “Best of luck to all candidates during the upcoming elections.”

This week, the Montana Commissioner of Political Practices notified Secretary Jacobsen of any candidates who did not comply with the provisions of MCA Title 13, Chapter 37, therefore disqualifying such candidates from appearing on the ballot.

Updated filing statuses can be found on the 2022 candidate filing list.
