I am experiencing homelessness, can I register to vote?

The answer is YES. If you are experiencing homeless you can register before or on election day.

Registering before election day:

• If you register before Election Day using an outdoor location as your residence, your voter record will be marked ‘challenged’ because the county could not confirm a specific street address. You will still be able to vote, but at the polling place on Election Day, you will be asked to swear under oath that you are living at that location. In order to better ensure your registration remains active through Election Day, it is best to register within two months of that date.

Register on Election Day:

• You can also register on Election Day. You will need to show proof of residence.
• If you live outside, in a shelter, or are staying at a friend’s house, you may not have any documents proving you live there. If so, a registered voter from your precinctcan go with you to the polling place to sign an oath confirming where you live.
• If you live in a shelter, a staff person can go with you to the polling place to confirm you live at the shelter.

Voting after a felony conviction

• You can vote after you finish all parts of your sentence, including any probation, parole, or supervised release.
• As soon as you finish (once you are ‘off-paper’), you can vote. You will need to register to vote. It is best to register before Election Day, but it is not required.

I am a college student, where can I vote?

• You should register to vote from the address you currently consider home. For many students, this is likely a school address or a parent’s house. If you still go back to visit but no longer consider it your home, then you should register to vote where you live at school.
• If you moved to Minnesota from another state and currently consider Minnesota your home, you can vote here even if you pay out-of-state tuition or have a driver’s license from another state.
• If you do not consider your school address to be your home, you can apply to vote by mail with an absentee ballot.
• Minnesota voters can apply online; otherwise, visit your home state’s election website.
