Voter registration events

person registering to vote at an outdoor community event

You can help others in your community get registered to vote. If you're hosting a voter registration drive event, it's important to read and understand the guidelines.

Learn more about hosting a voter registration drive

To provide paper voter registrations at your event, you can download applications from the Minnesota Office of the Secretary of State. They have applications in English, Spanish, Hmong, Somali, and other languages.

Download voter registration applications

Any applications you collect must be returned to the Office of the Secretary of State or your county election office within 10 days of when the voter signed and dated the application. You may also return them to our office and we will send them to the appropriate county.
