## Resource

Minnesotans can start casting their ballots in the midterm election this Friday. Absentee ballots will start to be mailed out and voters will also be able to vote absentee in person at certain early voting locations. Two office buildings in downtown St. Paul have a new owner. 375 Jackson Street and 135 5th Street were recently purchased by Florida real estate investor Jamie Rand through his Downtown Revival Trust. The average tenures of Minnesota school board members are shrinking. School board members are serving about half as long as they once did.
