in-person voting

There were very few problems that popped up during last week’s election in Washtenaw County. WEMU’s Kevin Meerschaert reports.

It’s Election Day with polls open from 7 AM to 8 PM. Election officials say early voting was a spectacular success in Washtenaw County with particularly high numbers on the final Sunday. WEMU’s Kevin Meerschaert reports.

Washtenaw County elections officials are reminding residents, at this point, if you haven’t mailed your absentee ballot, it might be best to try an alternative. WEMU’s Kevin Meerschaert reports.

Absentee ballots continue to roll in. Nine days of early-in person voting will conclude on November 3rd. And then, Election Day hits on Tuesday, November 5th. There are still a good number of people who have yet to vote, and getting out the vote and making sure voters are informed is at the heart of the mission of the League of Women Voters of Washtenaw County. WEMU's David Fair checked in with the League’s voter services director, Rebecca Shiemke, on where we are and what’s left to be done.

Early voting begins tomorrow in Washtenaw County and across Michigan. WEMU’s Kevin Meerschaert reports.

Michigan is one of seven swing states in the presidential election, and the race is basically tied. As Colin Jackson reports, that means major party presidential campaigns are converging on the state in the final sprint to Election Day.

Absentee ballots in Michigan are in the mail or available for pickup. Early in-person voting is already happening in some places. These relatively new ballot options are changing the culture of voting in Michigan. Rick Pluta followed one voter’s absentee ballot from application to drop-off.

The November election is approaching, and today marks the start of absentee voting in Michigan. Early in-person voting will begin on October 26th. Michigan Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist joined WEMU's David Fair to discuss in the lead-up to Decision Day.

Washtenaw County Clerk Larry Kestenbaum says, despite the very low turnout for early voting, he doesn’t expect any changes for the fall. WEMU’s Kevin Meerschaert reports.

A state elections board certified that President Joe Biden won the Democratic primary last month and former President Donald Trump won the Republican primary. The Michigan Board of State Canvassers also heard more Monday on how voter behavior is changing. We have more from Rick Pluta.
