Early or Absentee Voting

In Minnesota eligible voters do not have to wait until Election Day to vote. Voters may vote early with an Absentee Ballot.

Vote Early In-Person

Any Fridley resident who wishes to vote early may do so by Absentee Ballot beginning 46 days before Election Day at the Fridley Civic Campus. After submitting an Absentee Ballot Application(PDF, 957KB), you will be given a ballot and able to cast it in person that day.

When absentee voting at the Fridley Civic Campus, no campaigning is allowed in the building or within 100 feet of the building. This includes campaign buttons, signs or clothing. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. 

Registration Status

All absentee voters must submit an Absentee Ballot Application(PDF, 957KB), regardless of registration status. If a voter is not registered, or their registration has expired, they are required to re-register by filling out the Voter Registration Application(PDF, 290KB).
