ST PAUL, Minn — Minnesota voters will have several opportunities to make their voices heard during the 2020 election season.
A full schedule of 2020 elections can be found on the Minnesota Secretary of State's website.
The first statewide election happened March 3, 2020, in the Minnesota Presidential Primary. It was the state's first presidential primary election since 1992, when the state switched to a caucus system for the next several years.
Caucus meetings aren't entirely a thing of the past: For other party business, precinct caucuses were held on the night of Feb. 25.
In addition to the presidential race, 2020 will also include elections for a U.S. Senate seat in Minnesota, all eight congressional seats, and all state House and Senate seats in the Minnesota legislature.
The field of candidates in those races was narrowed with a primary election on Aug. 11, 2020.
The general election will be Nov. 3, 2020, with early (absentee) voting beginning on Sept. 18.
