ELECTION

The State General Election will be held on Tuesday November 8, 2022.  All registered voters may request an Absentee Ballot and can also request to be put on our Permanent Absentee Voter List without providing a reason. To request a ballot, please contact me, Vivian Sikowski at (810)765-1145 ext. 207. Once you are on the Absentee list you will receive an application to vote before each Election. Fill out the application and return it to the Township if you would like to receive your ballot via mail.  If you do not fill out the application, we presume you will be voting in person on election day.

The last day to request an Absentee Ballot is Monday November 7, 2022 before 4 PM, but you must come into the hall and complete the paperwork, and complete your ballot in the hall at that time.

Please feel free to use our drop boxes for the Absentee Ballots. They are checked twice a day and are camera monitored.  Absentee ballots must arrive at the Township before 8 PM on the day of Election.  The mail does take some time, so if it is getting to be close to November 8, 2022, we strongly encourage using the drop box anytime or dropping off your ballot during our new lobby hours.  ALL APPLICATIONS AND RETURNED BALLOTS ARE KEPT IN A SECURE LOCATION.

ELECTION INSTRUCTIONS FOR MARKING THE BALLOT:
