The MN Presidential Primary is Tuesday March 3rd.  It is the first presidential primary in our state in three decades and comes out of the chaos at the MN caucuses in 2016.

Steve Simon is MN’s 22nd Secretary of State.  He oversees voting and elections in the state of MN and joined us today to talk about a bill he's supporting to make your primary vote private, and how the state of Minnesota is working to make sure the November 2020 elections are secure. 

If you can't make it to the primary vote on March 3rd, early absentee voting is now open!
