Voters in Kalispell and Columbia Falls vote Tuesday in city elections. Polling places open at 7 a.m. and close at 8 p.m.

In Kalispell, voters will choose between incumbent Mayor Pam Kennedy and challenger Tammi Fisher. Four city council positions are up for election as well; only two are contested. Kalispell voters cast ballots at the Flathead County Fairgrounds Expo Building.

Columbia Falls voters have one mayoral candidate, Councilman Don Barnhart, who is vacating his seat to run for mayor. There are three city council seats on the ballot. In Columbia Falls, residents vote at City Hall.

The city of Whitefish is conducting a mail ballot election. Ballots that haven't been mailed must be delivered by 8 p.m. to Whitefish City Hall or to the Election Department at the courthouse in Kalispell.

Whitefish has four candidates vying for three city council seats, and Whitefish Municipal Court Judge Bradley F. Johnson runs unopposed for re-election.

Kalispell Public Schools also has an issue on the ballot: a $2.8 million building reserve levy for its elementary district and $4.1 million for its high school district. Kalispell voters and county

residents who live in a school district that feeds into Flathead or Glacier high school will decide whether to pass the levies.

Voters inside Kalispell city limits, including those who are part of the West Valley School District, will vote at the fairgrounds. Voters in feeder districts will vote on the high school levy at the following locations:

• From 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Evergreen Junior High School, Helena Flats School, Lakeside Elementary, Somers Middle School and West Valley School.

• From 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Smith Valley School.
