Voter Information

The City of Zimmerman is divided into two election precincts.  Residents living north of County Road 4 (Fremont Avenue) are designated to be in Precinct 1 and residents living south of County Road 4 (Fremont Avenue) are assigned to Precinct 2.  Precinct 1 residents vote at the Free Grace United Church, located at 12844 - Fremont Ave, and Precinct 2 residents vote at the Refuge Church, located at 25620 - 4th Street West.  Elections are held in even-numbered years.  Minnesota law allows you to take time off from work to vote without loss of salary or wages during the morning of state elections. 

 

VOTING BY ABSENTEE BALLOT
In Minnesota, you can vote early with an absentee ballot starting 46 days before Election Day. You can request an absentee ballot online.


ELECTION JUDGES
Election Judges play a vital role in conducting voting activities for local, state and federal elections.  In addition to assisting at the polls on Election Day, judges are also required to attend a two-hour election judge training through the Sherburne County Auditor/Treasurer's Office.  All time served is paid by the City. 

To be an election judge, you must be:

  • Eligible to vote in the state of Minnesota
  • Affiliated with a major political party
  • Able to speak, read and write English
  • Appointed by the City Council

Election judges cannot be the spouse, parent, child or sibling of any election judge serving in the precinct, nor can a judge be a candidate, or spouse, parent child or sibling of any candidate on the ballot in the precinct in which they serve.

If you are interested in serving as an election judge, contact City Clerk/Treasurer Kary Tillmann at 763-856-4666, x1022, or at ktillmann@cityof zimmerman.com.
