<div>Missoula, Mont. — More than 500,000 absentee ballots were sent out for Montana’s general election, and some voters online said their ballots arrived after Election Day or did not arrive at all.NonStop Local reached out to some of those people for their stories but did not hear back and could not verify those claims.Bradley Seaman with Missoula County Elections said every absentee ballot was mailed on October 9. He explained that some delivery problems can happen when a voter moves.“By law, ballots aren't able to be forwarded," he said. "If you moved and you updated your address with the post office but not with us, it comes back as undeliverable."Seaman said the office follows an extensive process to catalog those ballots and contact voters when that happens.He said voters still had options if a ballot did not arrive in time.“Getting a replacement ballot from your elections office well before the election, provisional voting on election day and making sure that if you have an absentee ballot, (you) can pick up that undeliverable ballot from our office here at the Election Center,” said Seaman.Seaman said the best way for Montana voters to help make sure they receive their absentee ballots was to visit vote.mt.gov.</div>
