ARE YOU REGISTERED TO VOTE?

To vote in Michigan, you must be registered. To find out if you are registered to vote where you currently live, visit mi.gov/vote and click on “Your voter information.” You can also call your city or township clerk’s office and they can tell you if, and where, you are registered to vote.
If you’re not registered to vote where you live, it’s time to register!

If it’s BEFORE July 21, there are many ways to register to vote in the August 4 Primary. You can register:

• In person at any Secretary of State branch office, your city, township, or county clerk’s office, any state agency that provides public assistance or services to people with disabilities, any Armed Forces recruitment office, or a voter-registration drive.
• Online at mi.gov/vote. Click on “Register to vote online.” (To register online, you must have a valid Michigan driver’s license or state ID.)
• By mail. You can print an application, complete it, and mail it in. Get an application online at mi.gov/vote. Click on “Voter forms and publications.”
Starting July 21 (until 8 p.m. on Election Day), you only have one way to register to vote: in person at your city or township clerk’s office with proof of residency. While you’re there, you can request AND vote an absentee ballot. If you’d prefer to vote in person at an early voting site or at your polling place on Election Day (August 4), ask for a registration receipt and bring it with you when you go to vote.

Ensure Accessible Voting Sites. Train Now!

In late April 2026, our LWVGP Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee collaborated with the LWVMI DEI Committee on Voting Site Accessibility. Guest Speaker Eric Welsby, Advocacy Director, Detroit Disability Power, presented information on the latest disability audits at Election Day polling places and early voting sites. We encourage you to become involved in these audits. Training will be provided, and it’s a great way to help our clerks continue to be compliant with accessibility requirements during the voting process.
Watch the video that explains this process.
