We have 32 head-to-head matchups featuring 64 amazing products made right here in Minnesota. If you go to our website, CoolestThingMN.com or the Minnesota Chamber's main page, you can find the link to vote. You can also see the 64 products that are competing to be named the Coolest Thing Made in Minnesota.
