Early voting for the August 9 Primary Election is now open. Find out what’s on your ballot from the Office of the Secretary of State’s website at: http://myballotmn.sos.state.mn.us/. A primary election determines which candidates will move forward to be placed on the November ballot.
There are no city council races on the primary ballot for Elk River, but there are school board races and a county commission race depending on where in Elk River you live.
No excuse is needed to vote early. You can vote in person at Sherburne County or request your ballot by mail at: https://mnvotes.sos.state.mn.us/ABRegistration/ABRegistrationStep1.aspx. You can even set up a request to have your general election ballot mailed out to you when it becomes available this fall.
