MICHIGAN, USA — For the first time in a presidential election, Michigan voters will be able to track their absentee ballots.
The State of Michigan has been required to offer absentee ballot tracking since Proposal 2 was passed in 2022.
To track your ballot, visit the Michigan Voter Information Center.
From there, you have a few different ways to look up your ballot information. You can enter your birthday and zip code, your driver's license number, or your home address.
Once the website finds your ballot, on the top right corner of the webpage there will be an "Absentee Ballot" section. In this section, you'll be able to see:
- The date of the election
- The date your application for an absentee ballot was received
- The date the absentee ballot was sent to you
- The date your absentee ballot was received back
- If you're on the permanent ballot list
The webpage will also include early voting information, details about your clerk and voting district, drop box locations for your absentee ballot and election day voting information.
