2024 is a busy election year with three statewide elections including a Presidential Election. The Secretary of State's office encourages every eligible Minnesotan to register and go vote!
Please use this comprehensive toolkit with ready-made email, newsletter, and social media messaging to send to your community, employees, etc. This toolkit includes dates to send these messages, graphics to share, links to videos, and more.
The Secretary of State is also asking for Minnesotans to step up and become poll workers. It takes around 30,000 poll workers (sometimes called election judges) to put on an Election in Minnesota. Serving as an election judge is a great way to get to know our democracy up close and contribute to your community — plus, you get paid!
