Polls are open from 7a.m. – 8 p.m. If voting in-person, be sure to plan ahead in case of lengthy lines or wait times at polling places. 2024 is the first time Early Voting is in place. Polls will be open for voting from Saturday, October 26-Sunday, November 3. Some municipalities may allow voting to occur prior to October 26. 

If an emergency like a sudden illness, hospitalization, family death or birth of a baby prevents you from reaching the polls on Election Day, you may request an emergency absentee ballot from your local clerk’s office. See below for additional information on absentee ballots. 

Voter Registration

Make sure you are registered to vote to exercise your civic duty! You can register to vote online, by mail, or in person at a Secretary of State branch, your local clerk’s office, at any state agency that provides public assistance or services to people with disabilities or through a voter registration drive. If you register to vote within 14 days of the November 5 election, you must register in person at your local clerk’s office by 8 p.m. on November 5 and show proof of where you live. Acceptable documents include a Michigan driver’s license or State ID card, current utility bill, bank statement, paycheck or government check or other government document. Your vote matters!

Absentee Ballots

Once you are registered to vote, you can request an absentee voter ballot without giving a reason. Online and mail requests for an absentee voter ballot must be received by your local clerk’s office by 5 p.m. on November 1 for the November 5 election. You must complete and return your absentee voter ballot to the clerk’s office by 8 p.m. on election day before polls close. Apply for an absentee ballot by completing an online application or by contacting your local clerk’s office.
