How to Vote
Voting in Minnesota Chippewa Tribe elections is straightforward. Here’s what you need to know:
In-Person Voting:
If you wish to vote in person, visit your designated polling location on Election Day. Bring a valid ID with you. You do not need to register in advance—poll workers will verify your eligibility by checking your information in the voter database.
Mail-In Voting:
If you live off-reservation or cannot vote in person, you can vote by mail. Follow the instructions on your mail-in ballot to ensure your vote is counted.
