Trusted Elections Stronger Together

The Minnesota Reformer and League of Women Voters of Minnesota, in partnership with the Leagues of Duluth, Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Mankato, are bringing communities together for a series of conversations about Minnesota’s 2026 elections.

Join us at Dovetail Café to learn how Minnesota’s elections are administered, why they remain safe and secure, and what each of us can do to help keep them that way. Hear from local election officials, journalists, and League leaders as they share insights, answer questions, and explore how informed, engaged citizens help strengthen trust in our elections.

Come early! Chat with League of Women Voters of Duluth members, visit their voting-themed photo booth, and grab food or a beverage from Dovetail Café before the program begins.

Whether you’re a longtime voter or simply curious about how our election system works, you’ll leave better informed about Minnesota elections and how you can help protect free and fair elections.

Panelists include:

• Patrick Coolican, Editor-in-Chief, Minnesota Reformer
• Nancy Nielsen, County Auditor
• Phil Chapman, St. Louis County Clerk of the County Board / Supervisor of Elections

We hope you’ll join us for this important conversation!
