Preliminary election results show voters in three Montana counties have approved local excise taxes on recreational marijuana.
Missoula, Park and Yellowstone counties each approved a 3% local tax on recreational marijuana.
The local option tax on recreational sales will be on top of a state mandated 20% tax.
Park and Yellowstone counties also appear to have approved a tax increase on medical marijuana; Missoula County narrowly rejected that increase.
