Registering to Vote:

If you’ve never registered in Michigan before, you must go in person to your city or township clerk's office before 8 pm on Election Day and provide a document showing proof of residency. You will also be able to vote while at your clerk’s office. The document must include your current address and can be in electronic form. You may show:

a Michigan driver’s license or state ID
a current utility bill
a bank statement
a paycheck
a government check
another government document

You can find your city or township clerk's office at Michigan.gov/Vote.

How to Vote at Home:
