Voting During the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 peacetime emergency in Minnesota may still be in effect during upcoming elections. Also, the restrictions and recommendations that are in place because of COVID-19 will probably affect the voting process for many Minnesotans later this year. For details utilize The Minnesota Disability Law Center Fact Sheet.

Vote from home by mail, or vote in person at your local polling place, from military or overseas. Track your absentee ballot or find your county election office. Information on voting can be found on the website of the Minnesota Secretary of State at  https://www.sos.state.mn.us/elections-voting/
