Nearly eight in 10 Minnesotans have moderate to high confidence of an accurate vote count in the November election. That's according to a new Minnesota Poll. Meanwhile, the same poll respondents don't seem to be using recently-legalized cannabis in large numbers. When asked, 85 percent reported not using cannabis within the last month. 

And police say a man opened fire on a state trooper along Interstate 94 after crashing his girlfriend's car while she was driving. Eddie Freeman is charged with six counts of assault — including against a police officer. 

This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Phil Picardi. Music by Gary Meister.
