Interpretation Services for Voters:

Beginning in 2024:

• The Secretary of State or your County Auditor must enter into contracts with translators to ensure the provision of election materials in Minnesota's three most commonly spoken non-English languages and additional languages determined based on specific state demographic criteria and/or by request.
• In precincts where language minority voters exceed 20%, an election judge proficient in a specific language must be present at polling places if at least ten voters request interpretation services, through the Secretary of State or County Auditor, at least 30 days prior to the election.
• The Secretary of State is responsible for making translated election materials available on their website.
