Election Updates beginning 2024

In the State election held in November of 2022, Michigan electors voted to approve proposal 2022-2. With that new law, there will be some changes in the voting process for Federal and State elections in the future. View the updates in the dropdown tabs below.

Early Voting

The biggest new change allows for early voting for 9 consecutive days prior to Election Day. Early Voting is only required for Federal and State elections. This is in addition to Absentee Voting, so there are now three ways to vote in a Federal or State election. You may vote by Absentee Ballot, during the 9 Days of Early Voting, or at our precinct on Election Day.

*Early Voting will not be available for special elections for the townships, counties or schools.

*Early voting will not take place at the Sheridan Township Hall. It will be held at the Custer Township Hall, 1950 E. US-10, Custer, MI 49405.

All qualified electors have the right to mark a ballot and deposit the ballot in the tabulator beginning the second Saturday before an election and ending the Sunday before the election. Early voting will be available at the Custer Township Hall, 1950 E. US-10, Custer, MI 49405. Early Voting will be held from 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. each of the nine days.

Permanent Absent Voters List Eliminated

The new list will be called the Permanent Ballot List. If you choose to be on the Permanent Ballot List, you will automatically be sent a ballot for all elections in the future, eliminating the application process. Anyone can apply to be on the Permanent Ballot list by visiting Michigan.gov/vote or by obtaining a new application from the Township Clerk. If you have any questions, please contact Sheridan Township Clerk, Marlynn Gulembo at [email protected] or 231-462-3565
