Minnesota HF68 requires retention elections for appointed county officials.
Minnesota HF68 mandates that counties hold retention elections for individuals appointed to certain county offices. The first election must occur at the next general election following the bill's enactment. If voters do not approve the appointee's retention, the appointee can remain in office until January 1 following the election, after which the county board of commissioners must appoint a new person. If voters approve retention, the appointee can remain in office and must face retention elections every four years.
