Any registered voter in Michigan has the right to vote early in person at an early voting site for statewide and federal elections in which they are eligible.

Voters in Michigan can register to vote up to and on Election Day, including during the early voting period.

The early voting period takes place for a minimum of nine consecutive days, ending on the Sunday before an election. Communities may decide to provide additional days of early voting, up to 29 days total.

Early voting sites must be open for at least eight hours each day during the early voting period.

Early voting is offered for all statewide and federal elections. Communities may also choose to provide early voting for local elections.
