57. Minnesota is an open primary state but there is limited party affiliation information...
Mon Jan 26, 2026, 01:36 AM
Monday

I went to the Minnesota Secretary of State site and got this:

How do I change my party registration?
Voters do not declare a party when they register to vote in Minnesota, so there is nothing to change! Minnesota has an "open primary" so voters choose which party's primary to participate in when they vote their ballot.

In most cases no one will know which party's primary you voted in. However, for the Presidential Primary, the major party chair will get a list of voters who chose their party's ballot.
