Election day!

Today is election day in Minnesota for local offices including city councils and school boards. Many school districts also have local levies on the ballot. If you don't know where to vote, visit the Minnesota Secretary of State website or call 651-215-1440 or 1-877-600-8683. Polls are open from 7am to 8pm today.

If you're not registered yet, don't let that deter you. As long as you are over 18 and have been a resident of Minnesota for more than 20 days you can register to vote at the polls. Just bring a utility bill to confirm your address.

If you don't know what you'll be voting on, the StarTribune website has a handy MyVote site where you can find out who and what will be on your ballot before you head to the polls.

So, get out there and vote! Your voice matters!
