HF 2095 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Counties authorized to establish pools of election judges by random selection, and counties and cities allowed to require appointed registered voters to serve as election judges.

This bill allows Minnesota counties to create random pools of registered voters for election judge positions, selecting individuals from the county's voter list. Counties and cities can require appointed registered voters from these pools to serve as election judges on absentee ballot boards and in polling places. The law mandates that appointed voters must serve if selected, while prohibiting exclusion based on race, religion, sex, national origin, or economic status. It amends Minnesota Statutes to establish this process, directly affecting registered voters who may be randomly chosen for service.
