This Voter 101 session will cover a range of important election topics from the recent legislative changes like automatic voter registration and pre-registration that make voting in Minnesota more accessible and secure. You’ll also learn more about the 2024 election and the different ways you can participate.
Presenter: Melanie Hazelip is the Voter Outreach Director for the Office of the Minnesota Secretary of State. She has done voter and civic engagement work since 2016 in a variety of capacities. She believes democracy is not a spectator sport, we all must participate. In her work she tries to make voting accessible to all eligible Minnesotans. She spends her days talking to advocates around the state who share the same goal.
She lives in Saint Paul with her husband, three kids, and two black cats.
