Multiple Options Available For Michiganders To Cast Ballots In Upcoming Presidential Primary

As Michigan gears up for the upcoming presidential primary on Tuesday, February 27th, residents are reminded of the various methods available for casting their votes. 

Since 2018, Michiganders have had the option to vote absentee without providing a reason, streamlining the voting process for registered voters. To request an absentee ballot, individuals can utilize the state’s online absentee voter request form up until 5 p.m. the Friday preceding the election. Forms for absentee ballot requests are accessible online in multiple languages and formats, including English, Arabic, Bengali, Farsi, Spanish, and large print. 

Alternatively, voters can contact their local city or township clerk to request a mailed application. It’s crucial to note that the primary is closed, necessitating voters to choose between Democratic or Republican ballots, whether voting in person or absentee.
