Welcome to #MNLatinoVote, COPAL’s voter guide for Latine communities in Minnesota! COPAL plays a key role as a voter education resource, and COPAL Members engage in bilingual phonebanking, doorknocking, texting, and more to mobilize the Latine vote.
Thanks to the unwavering support of our community, dedicated volunteers, and supporters, the MN Latino Vote campaign made a powerful impact this year—making over 200,000 phone calls, sending over 60,000 text messages, and knocking on the doors of over 5,000 voters. Together, we’ve brought Latine voices to the forefront and strengthened our democracy!
