Voting in Michigan

Voting Resources

Casting a ballot has never been more convenient. Below are resources that will help you:

  • Make sure you are registered to vote;
  • Get registered to vote if you are not registered;
  • Find out where your polling place is located;
  • Find other helpful information and tips

The National Association of Secretaries of State provides this resource page that has links to check your voter registration status, to get you registered to vote, as well as information about voter ID, absentee and early voting.

The Federal Government has a special website devoted to information for college students. It also has voter registration and other pertinent information but, importantly, has information for students who need or want to decide between registering to vote at their permanent address or at the school address. 

The State of Michigan offers the Michigan Voter Information Center which also has information about voter registration, absentee ballots, early voting and other topics, but also has information about registering and voting at the same time on Election Day.
