ELECTION ELIGIBLE VOTER REGISTRATION

With the passage of Proposal 18-3, an unregistered elector (or registered elector who has moved) who wishes to participate in an upcoming election now has the following options:

  1. Register in person at a Secretary of State Branch, a designated voter registration agency, the voter’s county, township clerk’s office or by mail no later than the 15th day prior to the election.
  2. Register to vote during the 14 days prior to the election, including Election Day, by applying in person at the Township Clerk’s Office.

Voters who register to vote in person during the 14-day window must show proof of residency as well as provide photo identification. A Michigan Driver License or Michigan Identification Card with the current address satisfies both the proof of residency and photo identification requirements. If the photo identification provided is a Driver License or State ID Card with a non-current address, the following documents are considered acceptable proof of residency:

  • Current utility bill
  • Bank statement
  • Paycheck
  • Government check
  • Other government document

MOVING

Whenever you move to a new city, township or village you must re-register to vote.
