Associated Press - November 2, 2009 6:14 AM ET

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Monday is the last day of campaigning for candidates and causes on the ballot in local elections.

Secretary of State Mark Ritchie says he expects nearly half a million Minnesotans to vote on Tuesday for municipal offices, school boards and school levies.

Cities holding mayoral elections include Minneapolis, St. Paul, Moorhead, St. Peter and White Bear Lake.

Nearly 60 school districts are asking voters for extra local property tax money to supplement state and federal aid. Some have more than one levy request.

The Secretary of State's Web site has a poll finder where voters can look up where to vote and see who's running. It's at http://pollfinder.sos.state.mn.us.
