Voters in Detroit and Michigan will have more than two weeks to cast their votes before the November 5th general election, allowing them to avoid election day crowds and vote at their convenience at locations near their homes.

Beginning 9 AM Saturday, October 19th, the City of Detroit will activate 14 early voting sites that will remain open until election day on November 3th.  Early voting sites will be open Mon-Saturday from (9am-5pm).

Early voting locations for the City of Detroit include: 

  • Butzel Family Center, 7737 Kercheval 
  • Department of Elections, 2978 W. Grand Blvd 
  • Clark Park, 1130 Clark
  • City Clerk Office, 2 Woodward Ave. 
  • Christ Temple Baptist Church, 10628 Plymouth Rd.
  • Adams Butzel Recreation Complex, 10500 Lyndon 
  • Palmer Park Community Center, 1121 Merrill Plaisance St. 
  • WCCCD Eastern Campus, 5901 Conner 
  • Northwest Activities Center, 18100 Meyers Rd. 
  • Farwell Recreation Center, 2711 E Outer Dr.
  • WCCCD Northwest, 8200 W. Outer Dr. 
  • Kemeny Recreation Center, 2260 S. Fort St. 
  • Heilmann Recreation Center, 19601 Crusade 
  • Greater Grace Temple, 23500 W. Seven Mile Rd. 

“During major elections, the crowds at polling places on election day can discourage some people from voting,” said Mayor Mike Duggan. “We want to make sure that every Detroiter who is registered to vote has the ability to legally cast their vote early, when and where it is most convenient to them.”

How early voting works 

Michigan’s law changed to allow early voting in November of 2022, which gives Michiganders a very similar voting experience to voting on election day. Voters will be issued a ballot and then insert their ballots directly into a tabulator at their early voting site, similar to what they would experience on Election Day.  

If residents cannot make it in-person to vote at any of the voting locations on or before election day, residents can also vote from home ahead of election day and either mail in their ballot or place it in one of the secure drop box locations. 

Residents can sign up for the Permanent Mail Ballot List to receive an absentee ballot in the mail before every election. If the ballot is sent in before the election, the vote will be counted. It’s generally recommended that those who plan to vote from home request a mail in ballot no later than October 15th to ensure enough time to receive, complete, and return your ballot by the deadline. Absentee ballots are due y November 5th at 8 p.m. All absentee ballots are trackable online.  

You can find an early voting site closest to you by visiting Detroitvotes.org and scrolling down to the map at the bottom of the page.

Absentee ballots can be requested at, https://mvic.sos.state.mi.us/AVApplication/Index for individuals who have a valid ID or driver’s license.  

Residents can check to see if the Detroit City Clerk’s office have received their application and if the ballot has been mailed by filling out the online form on, https://mvic.sos.state.mi.us/Voter/Index. There residents can also track the status of their ballot.

La votación anticipada de las elecciones del 5 de noviembre comienza en Michigan, el sábado 19 de octubre.

Para emitir su voto para las elecciones del 5 de Nov

Los votantes de Michigan tendrán más de dos semanas para emitir el sufragio, antes de las elecciones generales del 5 de noviembre, lo que les permitirá evitar la multitud del propio día y les da la oportunidad de hacerlo cuando les resulte conveniente, en lugares cercanos a sus hogares.

A partir de las 9 a. m. del sábado 19 de octubre, la ciudad de Detroit activará 14 sitios de votación anticipada que permanecerán abiertos hasta el día de las elecciones del 3 de noviembre. Con un horario de lunes a sábado de 9 a. m. a 5 p. m.

Los lugares de votación anticipada de la ciudad de Detroit incluyen:

  • Butzel Family Center, 7737 Kercheval
  • Departamento de Elecciones, 2978 W. Grand Blvd
  • Parque Clark, 1130 Clark
  • Oficina Municipal, 2 Woodward Ave.
  • Iglesia Bautista Christ Temple, 10628 Plymouth Rd.
  • Complejo de recreación Adams Butzel, 10500 Lyndon
  • Centro comunitario Palmer Park, 1121 Merrill Plaisance St.
  • Campus oriental de WCCCD, 5901 Conner
  • Centro de actividades Northwest, 18100 Meyers Rd.
  • Centro de recreación Farwell, 2711 E Outer Dr.
  • WCCCD Northwest, 8200 W. Outer Dr.
  • Centro de recreación Kemeny, 2260 S. Fort St.
  • Centro de recreación Heilmann, 19601 Crusade
  • Templo Greater Grace, 23500 W. Seven Mile Rd.

“El día de las elecciones primarias, la multitud en el lugar de votación, podría disuadir a algunas personas de votar”, dijo el alcalde Mike Duggan, y añadió: “Queremos asegurarnos de que todos los habitantes de Detroit, que estén registrados para votar, tengan la posibilidad de emitir legalmente el sufragio de manera anticipada, cuando y donde les resulte más conveniente”.

Cómo funciona la votación anticipada

La ley de Michigan cambió, para permitir la votación anticipada en noviembre de 2022, lo que les brinda a los habitantes, una experiencia similar a la del día de las elecciones. Los votantes recibirán una boleta y luego la insertarán directamente en un tabulador, similar a lo que experimentarían el día de las elecciones.

Si los residentes no pueden acudir en persona a votar, en ninguno de los lugares de votación con antelación o el día de las elecciones, también podrían hacerlo desde casa antes del día de las elecciones y enviar su boleta por correo o colocarla en un buzón seguro.

Los residentes pueden inscribirse en la Lista Permanente de Votación por Correo, para recibir una boleta de voto en ausencia por correo antes de las elecciones. Si la boleta se envía antes de la elección, el voto se contará. En general, se recomienda que quienes planeen votar desde casa soliciten una boleta por correo a más tardar el 15 de octubre para asegurarse de tener tiempo suficiente de recibir, completar y devolver su boleta antes de la fecha límite. Las boletas de voto en ausencia deben entregarse el 5 de noviembre a las 8 p. m. Todas las papeletas de voto en ausencia se pueden rastrear en línea.

Las papeletas de voto en ausencia se pueden solicitar en https://mvic.sos.state.mi.us/AVApplication/Index para personas que tengan una identificación válida o licencia de conducir.

Los residentes pueden verificar si la oficina de la Ciudad de Detroit recibió la solicitud y si la papeleta se envió por correo, completando el formulario en línea en: https://mvic.sos.state.mi.us/Voter/Index. Allí, también pueden rastrear el estado de su papeleta.
