State officials say that voting on Tuesday went smoothly at precincts across the state.

Observers from the U.S. Department of Justice were on the ground in Hennepin and Ramsey counties. Monitors with the Minnesota Attorney General's Office were also present with the federal monitors to ensure they complied with state law.

Advocates who organized election monitoring say they did not receive any reports of election interference by federal authorities.
