Minnesota voter turnout was more than 60 percent for Tuesday’s election
Some 60.8 percent of Minnesota voters cast ballots in Tuesday’s election, according to the secretary of state’s office.
That was down from the nonpresidential year election in 2018, when turnout was 64.3 percent, but it was higher than the 50.5 percent turnout in 2014 and 55.8 percent in 2010.
The office reported 2,516,656 of the state’s 4,120,218 eligible voters turned out for this year’s election.
Tuesday’s ballot featured a number of statewide offices — including governor, attorney general, secretary of state and state auditor — as well as legislative races, as well as county, municipal and judicial elections.
