Minnesota HF992 authorizes challengers in absentee and early voting polling places, detailing their appointment, conduct, and restrictions.

Minnesota HF992 amends state statutes to allow challengers in absentee and early voting polling places. It specifies that at elections for partisan offices, the chair of an authorized committee of each major political party can appoint voters as challengers. For nonpartisan offices, each nonpartisan candidate can appoint one challenger per precinct. Challengers must be state residents and cannot handle registration materials, influence voting, or converse with voters. They can remain in polling places until voting concludes and results are declared.
