Michigan’s Primary Election will be held on August 6, with voters casting their ballots for Michigan House and Congressional primary races, an open U.S. Senate seat, and local offices.

Participation Options:

    • In-person early voting – Begins Saturday, July 27, and runs through Sunday, August 4. For locations, please visit Michigan.gov/EarlyVoting.
    • Vote by mail – Request an absentee ballot from your local clerk and return the ballot by mail, at a secure drop box in your jurisdiction, or your early voting site.
    • Vote on Election Day – Polls will be open from 7:00 a.m. through 8:00 p.m.

Voters may only choose one voting option for each election. As soon as a voter casts a ballot by mail, at an early voting site, or on Election Day, it is immediately recorded in the state’s secure Qualified Voter File. Clerks will not issue a second ballot if one has already been submitted. Only one ballot per voter will be counted.

For more information, please visit Michigan.gov/Vote.
