Michigan 2021 Election Information - Vote Voiced Newsletter



Good day to everyone. Thank you for reading the Vote Voiced Newsletter. I appreciate your time. I hope you and your family are safe and well.


Today the Vote Voiced Newsletter is devoted to giving you the important times and dates leading up to the May 4th, 2021 elections in the State of Michigan.


The time to the May 4th election is coming up fast. Here we go:



Remember, you can register to vote online and find all your voting needs fulfilled. { Go to Michigan.gov } April 19th, 2021, is the last day to register in any manner other than in-person with your local clerk for the May 4th, 2021 election.


It is important also to know, you must have proof of residency for in-person registration with your local clerk between April 20th, 2021, and May 4th, 2021, up until 8:00 pm. Acceptable forms of proof of residency include driver's license, state ID, current utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check, or other government documents.




Voters may request an absentee ballot to be sent to them by mail up to 5:00 pm on April 30th, 2021.


Voters may submit a written request to spoil (i.e., change who you vote for a candidate) their absentee ballot and receive a new absentee ballot by mail up to 5:00 pm on April 30th, 2021. Be aware, voters who have returned their absentee ballots may submit a written request in person to spoil their absentee ballot and receive a new ballot in their clerk's office up to 10:00 am on May 3rd, 2021.


Voters may obtain an absentee ballot in person at their clerk's office up to 4:00 pm on May 3rd, 2021; the voter must vote in the clerk's office. If a voter has lost their absentee voter ballot or has not received their ballot in the mail, they may submit a written request in person to spoil their absentee ballot and receive a new ballot in their clerk's office up until 4:00 pm May 4th, 2021.


Voters may vote Emergency Absentee for the May 4th, 2021 election, up to 4:00 pm on May 4th, 2021, and election day registrants may obtain and vote an absentee ballot in person in their clerk's office or vote in person in the proper precinct, up to 8:00 pm on May 4th, 2021.


Polls open on May 4th at 7:00 am and close at 8: 00 pm.


Make your plan to vote. Where is your voting precinct? How will you get there? Can you walk there? Or will you need to drive, call for a ride? Or share a ride? Remember to take 3 friends and remind 3 friends it is time to vote.


Voting is a privilege. Michigan Residents have the opportunity to vote without long lines or waiting hours in the sun under the threat of committing a crime if someone brings us a bottle of water. Right now, 39 anti-voter bills are waiting to be passed. Some of the bills are neutral, such as preregistration of 16 and 17-year-olds. Additional processing time for absentee ballots and 1 day of early voting and electronic military ballots submission is great.


But, some bills will add dropbox restrictions and strict voter ID laws. Some Bills address absentee voting, poll challengers, poll workers, and canvassers. If we are not careful, one day, even my blog could be considered illegal.


We have wonderful voter laws and election security in Michigan. I am so happy I can vote by mail if I want to or go to the polls. The Michigan Voter has voted in great voting opportunities for all of us. Stay informed, vote, and speak up for our voting rights in Michigan.


Thank you for reading the Vote Voiced Newsletter. Your time is important to us. We are honored you choose to give us your time today.
