VOTE AT HOME (Absentee)
You can vote from home now! Request an absentee ballot online.
All registered voters in Michigan can vote before Election Day using what’s called an absent voter (or absentee) ballot. You can vote by absentee ballot through the mail, without leaving your home. You can submit an application for an absentee ballot online, through the mail, or in person at your local clerk's office. After voting, you can then return your absentee ballot at your local clerk's office, your city or township's secure drop box, or in your early voting site or election day polling place. We recommend using the secure drop box or a polling place if you are returning a ballot within two weeks of election day, in order to avoid possible postal delays.
