LANSING, Mich. — Michigan's presidential primary is earlier than in previous years following legislation passed in 2023 moving the primary election date up to February from August.
On Tuesday, Feb. 27, Michiganders will cast their ballots in the presidential primary, choosing to either vote in the Republican or Democratic primary. Voters are only allowed to vote in one of the party primary elections.

Ballots could also include local millages, ordnances or other local elections, based on where you live.
