OLLI at MSU October Friday, Oct. 9 Forum: Montana’s 2026 Ballot Initiatives
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Montana State University will host a Friday Forum on Oct. 9 to highlight proposed statewide initiatives that will appear on Montanans’ ballots this November. This free, public event will be held from noon to 1:30 p.m. online via Zoom.
League of Women Voters of Montana President, Bonnie Lorenzen, will present a detailed overview of initiatives CI-132, CI-133 and I-194. Lorenzen will be joined by additional League of Women Voters members and community leaders, including Jeff Mangan, former Montana commissioner of political practices, to answer participant questions on the measures as time permits. The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan, grassroots organization that works to protect and expand voting rights, ensuring that citizens make informed choices at the ballot.
Voting on initiatives is an opportunity for Montana residents to engage in direct democracy. More information on these and other Montana measures is available on the Montana Secretary of State website here: https://sosmt.gov/elections/ballot_issues/proposed-2026-ballot-issues/
Participants must register for the Friday Forum no later than 11 a.m. Oct. 9 and can do so online at montana.edu/olli/offerings or online via Zoom (https://zoom.us/webinar/register/2817858590279/WN_ZdukVqitTq-nzlSs3AsTbw).
