The 2020 election year is going to be different! The Minnesota Secretary of State's Office is encouraging all eligible voters to Vote From Home, to reduce spread of disease and keep our communities healthy! Voting from home is easy and available to any Minnesota voter through our absentee balloting system.
The Secretary of State is also asking for Minnesotans to step up and become poll workers, to help older citizens avoid exposure. It takes around 30,000 poll workers (sometimes called election judges) to put on an Election in Minnesota. And even though we are encouraging Vote From Home, some voters need or want to vote at the polls on Election Day.
Below, find a variety of nonpartisan materials for spreading the word about elections in 2020 via social media, email, or in person.
In 2016 and 2018, Minnesota was #1 in the nation in voter turnout. Thanks for doing your part, with these materials, to help us stay at the top!
