Montana temporarily shut down its online absentee voting system after a voter realized that Kamala Harris was not listed as a canidate on his ballot.

Montana’s election season has gotten off to a rocky start after absentee voters realized Kamala Harris was not a listed candidate on their ballot.

The state was forced to shut down its electronic absentee voter system after it went live on September 20 when a voter reported that there was no option to vote for the vice president.

Max Himsl, a Montana voter living in the UK, reported the issue when trying to fill out his ballot online, according to the Daily Inter Lake, a local newspaper. He reported it right away to the Flathead County Election Department on Friday, September 20.

As a precaution the Secretary of State’s office, run by Republican Christi Jacobson, took down the electronic absentee system for troubleshooting, although it insisted that very few voters had been affected by this issue.

    Ahh once again doing the same thing orbán did in hungary. They had very few places to do absentee voting so there were 10+ hour queues at the stands. They knew that like 95% of voters outside hungary would vote opposition. The one place that had enough voter stands and proper support was romania where they had a huge voter base(after they gave out a bunch of hungarian passports because historically it was hungarian land).
