Can I bring my mail ballot to my polling place?

No. You cannot drop your ballot off at a polling place on Election Day.

For your mail ballot to count, you must bring it to our office at 980 E. Hennepin Avenue by 3 p.m. on Election Day. You can choose to vote at your polling place with a new ballot instead.

You can vote in person as long as we have not yet received and counted your mail ballot. When you get to your polling place, we will check if it has been counted. If it has not been counted, you will be given a new ballot. Your mail ballot will be canceled and will not count (even if we receive it later).

Do I need to bring ID with me?

What you need to bring with you depends on if you need to register or update your registration before you vote.

If your voter registration is current...

You do not need to bring identification. This means you were successfully registered at least 21 days before Election Day and you have not moved or changed names since then. To confirm you are all set, check your registration status online

If you need to register or update your registration...

You will need to show proof of residence. Certain types of ID can be your proof of residence, but there are other options that don't require an ID. Be sure to read all your options and come prepared
