The Minnesota presidential nomination primary is happening this Tuesday, March 5, and it's your chance to have a say in who's squaring off in the November showdown.

If you haven't registered yet, no need to sweat. You can still register at the polls on Election Day, just make sure to bring proper proof of residence.
