The Missoula Organization of REALTORS® (MOR) believes it is essential to identify and support candidates for elected office who align with our positions on real estate and private property rights. Elected officials who champion these principles play a critical role in building strong, vibrant communities.
To that end, MOR implements a consistent and objective process to evaluate candidates. This includes written questionnaires, in-person interviews, and a scoring system based on alignment with our official position statements.
Supportive: In favor or signals clear position statement alignment
Neutral: Inconsistent or position is unknown
Unsupportive: Opposes or is against Real Estate Industry positions
