Absentee Voting

Can I vote by absentee ballot?

If you are a registered voter, you may vote absentee if:

  • You are 60 years of age or more.
  • You expect to be absent from the community in which you are registered to vote for the entire time the polls are open on election day.
  • You are unable to go to the polls and vote without the assistance of another person.
  • You cannot attend the polls because of your religious beliefs.
  • You have been appointed as an election inspector in a precinct other than the one in which you reside.
  • You are confined in jail or prison awaiting arraignment or trial.


How do I apply for an absentee ballot?

You can obtain an absent voter ballot by writing to the clerk of the city or township in which you are registered to vote. You may obtain an absentee ballot application online here (absentee ballot application). Ballots cannot be supplied through telephone requests. Your written request must include:

  • Your name.
  • The date of the election.
  • The address where you are registered to vote.
  • The reason why you are requesting an absentee ballot.
  • The address where you wish to receive your absentee ballot.

    (This must be your registration address, an address outside of your jurisdiction of registration, a hospital, or some other type of residential institution.)

  • Your signature and the date of your request.


Blank absent voter ballot applications can be obtained through your city or township clerk or may be printed off our website (absentee ballot application). Members of the armed forces and their spouses and dependents, members of the Merchant Marine and their spouses and dependents, and U.S. citizens temporarily living or traveling outside the territorial limits of the United States may use a Federal Post Card Application to obtain an absent voter ballot. U.S. Citizens temporarily living or traveling outside of the territorial limits of the United States must sign the Federal Post Card Application under oath to obtain an absent voter ballot. Anyone else eligible to use the federal form is not required to sign it under oath to obtain an absent voter ballot. Completed absent voter ballot applications should be returned to your city or township clerk.

When must the absentee ballot be returned?

Your completed absent voter ballot must be received by your city or township clerk's office no later than 8:00 p.m. on the date of the election.
