This year’s school board election in Great Falls will NOT be an all-mail ballot election. That means if you’re registered as an absentee voter, you will still receive your ballot in the mail. If you’re not registered as a permanent absentee voter, you will need to either pick up your ballot from the county elections office before May 1st OR vote in-person at the fairgrounds –  Exhibition Hall at the Montana Expo Park on election day!
