State significance

Montana does not have a notable Senate or gubernatorial contest this year, but it does boast two congressional districts for the first time in years.

The state was awarded an extra House seat after the 2020 census. The 1st Congressional District, which includes the cities of Bozeman, Butte and Missoula, could be competitive, though GOP nominee and former Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke is slightly favored over lawyer Monica Tranel.

Republican incumbent Rep. Matt Rosendale is running in the 2nd Congressional District, which encompasses much of the western part of the state and is anticipated to be much less competitive.

Counties are colored red or blue when the percent of expected vote reporting reaches a set threshold. This threshold varies by state and is based on patterns of past vote reporting and expectations about how the vote will report this year.
