Request it from the office below, send us the file, and you're ready to cut turf. Running countywide or in just part of Ramsey County? This is the office either way.
- Where to request it
- Ramsey County Elections Office (under the County Manager / Elections Manager)(651) 266-2171 | fax (651) 266-2177 | [email protected] | Ramsey County Elections, 90 W Plato Blvd Ste 160, St Paul, MN 55107 (mailing: PO Box 64098, St Paul, MN 55164-0098) | Elections Manager: David Triplett
- Cost
- $30.00 flat statutory rate. Check payable to 'Ramsey County.'
- How to request
- Email or mail a Registered Voter List Request to the Ramsey County Elections Office. Same SVRS extract, county-scoped. Requester must be a registered MN voter and provide ID + use-restriction affidavit. County also accepts the SoS request form (https://www.sos.mn.gov/media/2641/registered-voter-list-request-form.pdf) with the Ramsey County box checked.
- Turnaround
- 5 business days statutory. Ramsey typically processes within 3-5 business days.
- Use restrictions
- Same as statewide: Minn. Stat. § 201.091. Minnesota-registered voter requirement, ID, signed use restriction, and the subd. 4(e) ban on Internet publication and onward transfer. § 201.091 sets no penalty of its own, so § 201.27, subd. 3 governs: an intentional violation of chapter 201 is a felony.
Costs and rules change, so confirm the current details with the office before you order. Once you have the file, we handle loading it, cutting turf, and getting your volunteers knocking.
