Minnesota’s Primary is today

Today is Primary Election Day in Minnesota.

Local races in Beltrami County include the Beltrami County Sheriff’s primary, the Beltrami County District 2 race, and the primary for the Bemidji City Council At-Large seat.

One candidate on the Republican Senate 2 primary ballot, Edward Strickland, was disqualified by the Supreme Court for not living in the newly drawn Senate 2.

He will still appear on those ballots.

This new district extends west to the White Earth Reservation, east to the Leech Lake Reservation, and north to the Northwest Angle.

Up-to-date polling place information, especially in this post-redistricting year, is available at mnvotes.gov.
