Minnesota’s Strong Democratic Tradition
In Minnesota, we love our state, and we know how important it is to make our voices heard as part of the democratic process. That’s why Minnesota has some of the highest voter turnout rates in the country. In fact, Minnesota has led the country in voter turnout in the last three national elections, with a record-setting 79.96% of eligible voters voting in 2020.
In Minnesota, we work hard to ensure Minnesota’s elections stay safe and secure by investing in IT security and utilizing paper ballots. For more information on election security and fairness, please visit the website of Minnesota’s Secretary of State.
