City Clerk Kris Luedke reported on the purchase of new voting machines by Hennepin County. The
new machines will be able to accommodate ranked ballot voting, although the software is in the
process of being written. There is a good chance that Minneapolis will be able to use the machines
for their November election.
Commissioners wanted to know the number of cities in Minnesota which have multiple candidates
running for multiple offices.
Commissioners also had a question as to which level of government determines the method used to
elect the President and Congress.
