September 17, 2024 is National Voter Registration Day, a nonpartisan civic holiday celebrating our democracy. Since its kickoff in 2012, the holiday and its team of thousands of Partners have worked to get over 5 million Americans registered to vote in time for their next trip to the ballot box.
Thanks to Michigan voters, there are now several different options for voting before Election Day! Following is a breakdown of those options: early voting at an early voting site and absentee voting, either from home or in person at your local clerk’s office.
The Federal Voting Rights Act (VRA), passed in 1965, is now under attack and has been weakened over the years. That is why it is critical we pass the MI VRA to ensure all Michigan voters will be protected no matter where they come from, what they look like, or what they believe. Take action!
