 The Church is located just north of Kowalski’s Market on Eden Prairie Road:  16515 Luther Way, Eden Prairie, MN 55346.

At 12:15 pm on Election Day, Nov. 3, 2020 it was sunny and 65-degrees and there were no lines at the Eden Prairie City Center to drop off absentee ballots.

The absentee ballot drop-off deadline is 3 p.m. on Election Day. Voters cannot drop off an absentee ballot at a polling place.

If a voter has received an absentee ballot and did not vote or return the ballot, then the voter may still vote in person at their designated polling place on Election Day. Voters who are in line at their polling place by 8 p.m. on Election Day can vote.
