Minnesotans have been casting votes to elect leaders around the state since Sept. 19.
Both Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter are seeking their third terms; the entire Minneapolis City Council, as well as the Park Board and Board of Estimate and Taxation, are also on ballots. Many cities and school districts face local questions and referenda. All local races are nonpartisan.
Meanwhile, special elections for two state Senate seats put party control up for grabs.
Polls closed at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 4, and vote totals for every race in the state will update automatically as precincts finalize and transmit preliminary results. Here’s how we mark winners.
Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bloomington, St. Louis Park and Minnetonka use ranked-choice voting to determine winners. In ranked-choice contests that do not have a majority-winner in the first-choice round, ballots will go through a reallocation process that could stretch later into the week.
