Meet House members, take part in annual opinion poll at 2023 Minnesota State Fair
Fairgoers are invited to weigh in on hot political topics and meet with legislators during their visit to the House of Representatives’ booth at the 2023 Minnesota State Fair.
Located in the Education Building on Cosgrove Street, highlights of the House booth include the informal, unscientific opinion poll that draws responses from around 10,000 participants annually. Fairgoers can let their opinions be known this year on several issues, including sports gambling, budget surpluses, armed school staff and banning plastic water bottles. Results are expected to be available on the House website (www.house.mn.gov) Sept. 5, the day after the fair closes.
Also back is a photo opportunity as you stand behind a replica of the House Speaker’s desk. Complete with flags and the Abraham Lincoln portrait, the display gives you a feel for what it is like to stand in this position of power. Be sure to find out why Lincoln’s photo hangs in the House Chamber. Read more
