Legislators took a step this week toward issuing a subpoena to Montana Secretary of State Christi Jacobsen for information about voter records her office provided to the federal government.
Since 2023, Zinke has represented Montana’s 1st Congressional District, which covers much of western Montana, including Kalispell, Missoula, Butte and Bozeman.
A complaint filed with the Commissioner of Political Practices over billboards alleges Secretary of State Christi Jacobsen is in violation of a law limiting the use of state funds for advertisements by candidates for public office.
