Departments Election Day Experiences, 2006
Voting problems
by Karla Caspari, kcaspari@cpinternet.com
November 7, 2006
I spoke with a friend this morning who told me that she, and many other voters who turned up at 7 a.m. to vote at the Raspberry Community Center in the Twin Cities, Minnesota could not vote because the polling place was closed. Voters were angry, and many had to leave.
Here is what is posted on the Minnesota Secretary of State web site:
Q: When are the polling places open for voting?
A: For state elections, most polling places open at 7:00am; a few polling places in small townships located outside the seven-county metropolitan area may open as late as 10:00am. All polling places close at 8:00pm.
