Well, it gets more complicated with states
that enacted NVRA after August 1,
1994. Based on the details of Montana’s EDR law, and because the
law was not in place as of August 1, 1994, Montana remained subject to the NVRA
after enacting its version of Election-Day Registration in 2006.

I wonder if anyone is in the process of letting
Montana State Senators know this information. The Montana Secretary of
State, who wants to keep election-day voting, would be a logical person to be
spreading the word. Today the Montana House voted 67-33 to get rid of
election-day voting; I presume that is why this topic was just raised on this
list.
Colleagues, My friend Brenda Wright has reminded me that there
is indeed statutory language that indicates the NVRA exemption would be lost
if the state's EDR law were no longer in effect. My error--and sorry. Estelle Estelle H. Rogers,
