Where do I vote on election day

If you are already registered to vote where you live, you must vote at your assigned polling place. 

​If you are not registered to vote where you live, you must visit your city/township clerk’s office with proof of residency by 8 p.m. on Election Day to register to vote. Once you are registered, you can vote by an absentee ballot in the clerk’s office or go to your polling place, if there is time to do so.

How do I find my polling place?

You can find your polling place: 

• Online at the Michigan Voter Information Center michigan.gov/vote; 

• On your Voter Identification Card; 

• By calling your city/township clerk; or, 

• By calling the nonpartisan Election Protection hotline 866-OUR-VOTE

What if i have moved?

You should update your voter registration whenever you move.  If you did not update your registration by Election Day, you can register to vote at your city/township clerk’s office with proof of residency until 8 p.m. on Election Day.

You can also vote at your old polling place one last time if:

• You moved within the same city or township; or, 

• You moved to a different city or township after September 4, 2020.   

​

Can I get time off from work to vote?

Your employer isn’t required to give you paid or unpaid time off to vote. Ask if they have a policy that allows you to take time off. If they don’t, vote before Election Day.
