Minnesota caucuses

Minnesota's three major political parties, the Democratic-Farmer-Labor, Independence and Republican parties, will hold their precinct caucuses at 7 p.m. Tuesday. The Independence Party also will hold "virtual precinct caucuses" online at www.mnip.org Tuesday. All caucuses are open to the public.

Parties are required to notify county auditors' offices in advance of where their precinct caucuses will be held. You can call your county auditor or one of the major political parties for precinct caucus location information. Registration times for meetings may vary from 6 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
