Information

Voters must inform their City/Township Clerk in writing to obtain an absentee ballot application, or to be placed on a permanent absentee voter list.

You must request an absent voter ballot by submitting the application, large print application, a letter, a postcard, or a pre-printed application form obtained from your local clerk's office.

There are two versions of the Absent Voter Ballot Application. While both applications are the same, the first one can be printed and filled out by hand. The second application allows for you to type into the application and then print a copy from your computer.
