Note: this information is aimed at Michigan residents but mostly applies everywhere.
Are you ready to vote, Michiganders?
Know your rights this Election Day!
if you haven’t yet cast your ballot, we’re here to remind you how, and to urge you to fill out your full ballot, including down ballot races and the nonpartisan section.
HOW TO VOTE ON NOVEMBER 5:
In Person:
Polls are open Tuesday, November 5, from 7am-8pm. Confirm your polling place at mi.gov/vote.
If you are in line at 8pm, you can still vote so stay in line!
Remember, don’t wear or bring campaign- or candidate-related clothing, accessories, or signage – you will be asked to remove it.
If you need help or have any questions, call the election protection hotline at (866) OUR-VOTE (this is to the ACLU).
Absentee
You have until 8pm to return your absentee ballot! You can return it directly to your clerk OR at a secure ballot drop box.
Still need to register to vote? No problem – you can register until 8pm on November 5. Simply visit your local clerk’s office and bring proof of residency.
Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy, and it is strongest when we all make our voices heard. So, vote, vote, vote! And if you already took advantage of Michigan’s early voting period, share this information with friends and family who haven’t cast their ballots yet.
