Learn more about what's on your ballot, and how to research candidates this election season!
BallotPedia's 'sample ballot lookup' feature allows you to enter your address to see what will be featured on your ballot on a given election date. Sample ballots include information on candidates' biographies, past elections, and responses to a BallotPedia survey. Links to candidates' websites are also included.
This tool shows a list of candidates and ballot questions that will be on your ballot. This tool comes straight from the Minnesota Secretary of State, which oversees elections in Minnesota, but lacks some of the additional information that BallotPedia has.
