Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 4, and while this isn’t a presidential or midterm election year, it’s still a big deal for local communities across Minnesota. Voters will decide on mayors, city council members, school board seats, ballot questions and more.

In cities like Minneapolis and St. Paul, ranked choice voting is also in play.

To make sure you’re ready, MPR News has a free, personalized tool to help you learn who and what is on your ballot: Build Your Ballot.

Build Your Ballot is a statewide voter guide from MPR News. Just plug in your address, and it shows you:
