The first step is to make sure you are eligible to vote. If you're eligible, you must be registered to vote. If you're not sure whether you're registered, call your county auditor. If you're not, ask for a registration card. It's a simple form that takes a couple of minutes to complete.
Forms also are available at public libraries and most state, county and local government offices.
One of the most convenient times to register is on Election Day. To register on Election Day, go to the polling station for your district. If you don't know the polling place, ask a neighbor or call your county auditor. To vote, you'll need a suitable form of identification, such as a Minnesota driver's license, learner's permit or picture I.D. - or you can have another registered voter living in the district vouch for you. Vote by absentee ballot.
