To register by mail, download and complete the Minnesota Voter Registration Application. Mail the completed form to the address listed on the application.
To register in person, complete the same registration application and either bring it to the polling place on Election Day, or submit it in person at your local county elections office.
If you decide to register at the polls on Election Day, bring one of the following types of identification:
- A valid photo ID such as a MN driver’s license, permit, or ID card
- A valid student ID that has your picture (only if your college has given a student housing list to election officials)
- A photo Tribal ID card that shows your signature
- A valid voter registration in your same precinct showing a different name or address
- A registered voter residing in your precinct who can sign an oath confirming your address
- An employee of your residential facility who can sign an oath to confirm your address
- You may also provide an expired photo ID with a proof of residency, such as a utility bill or rent statement dated within 30 days of Election Day
