ALT Text: FACT CHECK! Being an informed voter is the first step in countering disinformation. Use trusted and verified sources, like MNVOTES.GOV for accurate voting information. NO POSTAGE STAMPS NECESSARY! Extra postage stamps are NOT required to send your absentee ballot. Voting by mail in Minnesota always includes a pre-paid envelope. ELECTION JUDGES’ INITIALS WILL NOT INVALIDATE YOUR BALLOT! Two election judges will always write their initials on your ballot when it’s issued to you—that’s in keeping with state law! That doesn’t identify or invalidate your vote. GET YOUR MAIL-IN BALLOT IN BEFORE ELECTION DAY! If you’re voting early by mail, your ballot must be received at your local election office by November 3—not postmarked by then! Make a plan to return it and make sure your vote is counted.
