A host of choices await voters on Tuesday when the general election reaches voting day.

Most Flathead Valley polling places open at 7 a.m. Election Day and close at 8 p.m.

Headlining the ballot are choices for U.S. president, U.S. senator and U.S. representative.

Voters also will choose a new Montana governor and attorney general and decide races for secretary of state, state auditor and superintendent of public instruction.

On the local level, two of Flathead County’s three commissioner positions are on the ballot. Although commissioners run in individual districts, all voters cast votes in commissioner races.

Flathead voters also will choose two new District Court judges.

For the Legislature, there are nine contested Montana House races and three contested Montana Senate contests to be decided Tuesday.

Five ballot issues and one contested Montana Supreme Court justice race also are on the three-page ballot.
