What Is Voter Protection?
Voter Protection is all about ensuring that every eligible Minnesotan is able to exercise their fundamental right to vote. This means:
- Preventing voter suppression, intimidation, and ballot insecurity.
- Answering election questions accurately.
- Ensuring election administration is in compliance with relevant state and federal laws.
- Providing equal ballot access to all voters.
Whether a voter decides to vote early via absentee ballot or go to their polling place on Election Day, the Voter Protection team works to ensure that every eligible vote counts.

Hotline Operators answer questions, follow up on reports of voting issues, and help Minnesota voters cast their ballots from the day early voting starts until November 5th.
