Voting FAQ

Who is eligible to vote?

To vote you must be:


Can I vote as a student?

Yes. According to the Secretary of State's website :

If you're from Michigan and go to school...

If you're from out of state and go to school in Michigan: register to vote at your school address in Michigan. (Remember to update your address each time you move).

Who needs to register or re-register?
I haven't voted in a while.  How can I check my registration?

Check on-line with the Secretary of State.

How late can I register to vote?

You can register to vote through Election Day.  Here’s how to register on election day.

How do I get an absentee ballot?

You can request an absentee ballot online or in person at your local clerk's office.  (Enter your address at the top to find it.)  At the same time, you can also check the additional box to be added to the permanent absentee ballot list, so that you will automatically get a ballot for all future elections.

See the Secretary of State's website for more information about absentee voting.

How do I track my ballot?
What if my ballot didn't arrive in the mail?
What help is there for people with disabilities?
Can I change my vote?
What if I have an emergency on Election Day?

You may request an emergency absent voter ballot after the deadline for regular absent voter ballots has passed, but before 4 PM on Election Day.

The emergency must have made it impossible for you to apply for a regular absent voter ballot.  For more information about emergency absent voter ballots, contact your local clerk's office.  (To find your clerk, enter your address at the very top of this page.)

What if I don't have an ID on election day?
