August 12 Primary Elections

Students who live on campus are eligible to vote in the primary elections on Tuesday, August 12. Resident students may vote in the precinct for Augsburg - we've supplied resident student lists.

In Minnesota partisan primary elections, voters do not need to publicly declare affiliation with a party -- they are free to vote for any one political party on the ballot. Voting for candidates from more than one party voids all votes in the party portion of the ballot.
