Election Day Tips

Check your voter registration at Michigan Voter Information Center.

Bring photo I.D. (e.g. driver’s license) or be prepared to complete an affidavit that you are not in possession of your photo I.D. A ballot will not be issued unless you provide sufficient photo identification or complete the affidavit.

Allow sufficient time for voting. Avoid the busiest times of 7:00am to 9:00am, 12:00pm (noon) to 2:00pm, and 6:00pm to 8:00pm. If you must vote during peak times, please be patient.

Due to the passage of the statewide ballot proposal 18-3 in November, all eligible and registered voters in Michigan may now request an absent voter ballot without providing a reason.

Poll Workers have a great deal of responsibility in issuing ballots and recording information. Accuracy is the goal. Each poll worker is doing their best to make sure that your voting experience is handled efficiently and with integrity. Your patience is appreciated!
