AV ballots – Sorry but you can not pick up a ballot for a spouse or family. We have to mail it or they have to come to the township so we can hand it to them. (And we have to ask for their photo ID and have them sign a form.)
It is a felony to sign an application for someone else to request a ballot. Making a false statement on an AV application is a misdemeanor.
(MCL 168.759 section 8)
You can mail them back, put them in our heavy duty drop box 24/7 in the breezeway. You can also turn them in to us during our office hours but we are required to see your ID.
If you plan to vote in person, please note:
“If it’s on the ballot, You can’t wear it!”
This applies to both candidates and offices on the ballot.
If you wish to vote AV (Absentee Voter), you must sign an AV application and return it. We check the signature to make sure it matches what is provided by the SOS.
You may sign an AV application online at:
Michigan Online Absent Voter Ballot Application (state.mi.us)
You may also come in person during our regular office hours, bring your ID and sign an AV application. It may take 5 minutes or so while we log in receipt of your application and assign a numbered ballot.
