House Bill 380 amends Section 13-25-307 of the Montana Code Annotated to change the date for the meeting of presidential electors from the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December to the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December. This revision aligns Montana's law with the Federal Electoral Count Act, ensuring consistency in the timing of electoral meetings across states.
In addition to the date change, the bill maintains the existing procedures for elector voting, including the requirements for marking and presenting ballots, as well as the consequences for electors who fail to comply with their pledges. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
