Get Out the Vote (GOTV)

Make Sure Your Voice Is Heard In Every Election!

Here are some tips for making sure your vote is counted:

CONFIRM THAT YOU’RE REGISTERED TO VOTE AND YOUR POLLING PLACE:
  • Go to: https://mvic.sos.state.mi.us/Voter/Index After you “search for your voter information”, you will be able to confirm your voter registration status and your polling place and hours on this web page.
  • If you are not registered to vote, it’s now too late to register on-line or by mail. HOWEVER, you can get registered at your local clerk’s office (see above website) up to 8 p.m. on election day.
