Here are some helpful things to consider if you are planning to vote on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3.
- Polling Places are open from 7:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. If you are in line to vote at 8:00 p.m., you will be allowed to vote.
- If you need to register to vote, you can do that at your polling place. See what you need to bring to register to vote.
- Chaska has four polling locations. Click on the address for directions. If you don't know your polling location, visit the Minnesota Secretary of State Polling Place Finder.
- If you are voting in-person at a polling place, please remember to follow these guidelines:
- Wear a mask when indoors or if physically distancing is difficult outdoors
- Keep six feet of space between you and other people if possible
- Do not display any political or campaign signs or items within 100 feet of a polling location
- Dress for the elements. Depending on when you go to vote, the line might extend outdoors.
- If you cannot easily leave your vehicle for mobility reasons or because you prefer to avoid contact with others as a health precaution, you can ask the greeter judge at your polling location to have your ballot brought out to your car. Two election judges from different major political parties must bring the ballot to your vehicle.
- If you have an absentee ballot that you have not returned yet, you can:
- Drop off your ballot at the Carver County Government Center (600 E 4th Street) between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
- Have someone you trust turn in your ballot at the Carver County Government Center (600 E 4th Street) between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
- Vote in-person at your polling place as long as your ballot has not been received by the election office. If you mailed in your ballot and are not sure if it has been received, you can track your ballot.
