We encourage Minnesotans to show support for their preferred candidates by participating in the candidate endorsement process that leads up to the state party conventions.
Going to a caucus is a great way to show support for a candidate, raise an issue that’s important to you, influence who the party will endorse for many offices, and meet people in your community.
When and where will precinct caucuses be held?
The 2026 precinct caucuses are scheduled to be held on Tuesday, February 3, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. They will take place at locations set by the parties. (see M.S. 202A.14) Parties share these locations with the Secretary of State, and voters can find the caucus location for their address with the Caucus Finder tool.
