    Polls in Eden Prairie will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. for the Tuesday, Aug. 9, primary election.

    To find your polling location, visit the Minnesota Secretary of State’s website. Sample ballots are also available there. Additional voting in Eden Prairie is available on the city’s website.

    For those who want to vote before then, early in-person voting for the state primary election can be done at City Center, 8080 Mitchell Road, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 6, and 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday, Aug. 8.
