Polling place rules
Only authorized people are allowed inside a polling location during voting hours, such as voters and their minor children, election workers and someone assisting a voter. People may not gather or linger at a polling location.
Campaigning is not allowed and political materials cannot be worn or taken into a polling location. State law outlines who is authorized to be in a polling location and the rules surrounding activity at or near a polling location.
For a complete list of who's allowed inside, see Minnesota Statutes 204C.06.
You have the right to vote without anyone in the polling location trying to influence your vote.
No one can campaign inside the polling location or within 100 feet of the building. If the polling place is on public property, no one can campaign anywhere on the property, even beyond 100 feet. However, the prohibition of signs and campaign materials within 100 feet does not apply to adjacent private property.
Security and outside information
You may receive mail or other items from outside sources. As your official elections office in St. Louis Park, material produced by the city will always contain our “Experience VOTING in the Park” logo. If you have any questions about an item you received, contact our elections office.
Security is critical to every election. For information on how your vote is securely and accurately counted, see the resources on the Secretary of State’s site about their efforts.
