As MLC’s Communications and Social Media Manager, Liz Gullett keeps clients informed and up-to-date on the goings on in Lansing and the Capitol.

Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson launched the Michigan Voting Dashboard, an interactive tool that allows the public to access election data by county and jurisdiction, with a focus on absentee and early voting.

Key Points:

    • Data is posted starting 45 days before each Election Day.
    • Information includes the number of absentee ballots requested by voters, the number of absentee ballots completed and returned to be tabulated, and the number of ballots cast at early voting sites. The totals are broken down by county and jurisdiction.
    • Data on the dashboard is updated daily and is pulled from the state’s Qualified Voter File (QVF).
    • The Department of State and Bureau of Elections are working with university students enrolled in a year-long User Experience capstone course to further develop the dashboard. The team intends to release more data in 2025.

To view the dashboard, please visit Michigan.gov/VotingDashboard.
