We are counting down to Vote Early Day on Saturday, October 24th and we want you to vote early! Michigan elections include 9 days of early the spans two weekends instead of just one Tuesday, and that gives so many more of us the opportunity to make a voting plan without having to juggle work, school, or other responsibilities most of us have during the week. So, mark your calendars for Saturday, October 24th through Sunday, November 1st and let’s make a plan, vote early, and make our voices heard!

Avoid the election day lines at the polls and vote early! In Michigan, voters can request and return absent ballots starting now. If you’re eligible to vote this November 3rd, check your registration status at mi.gov/vote and make a plan for how you’ll vote.

If you want the experience of voting in person but can’t make it to the polls on a Tuesday, try out Michigan’s Early Voting from Saturday, October 24th to Sunday November 1st.

Look out for our next post about resources for out-of-state college students voting in their home state! by @kcollegevotes
