House Bill No. introduced by M. Thiel aims to revise the date for the meeting of presidential electors in Montana to align with the Federal Electoral Count Act. The bill amends Section 13-25-307 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) by changing the meeting date from the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December to the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December. This adjustment ensures that the state's electoral process is consistent with federal guidelines.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions for the secretary of state to provide each elector with presidential and vice presidential ballots, which must be marked and presented according to specific regulations. It also outlines the consequences for electors who fail to comply with these requirements, including vacating their position. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
