Original post can be found here. In order to vote by mail in Minnesota for the August 11 state primary election and/or the November general election, you must request an absentee ballot. There are also options to vote early in person and to still vote on election day at your polling place, but this article focuses on voting by mail via absentee ballot.
You can apply for a ballot any time during the year, except the day of the election. Be sure to leave time for election officials to mail your ballot and for you to return it on or before Election Day.

If you need to register or update your voter registration, you may want to do that online before applying for an absentee ballot.
