Election Day

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3. Voters should confirm their assigned Election Day polling place through the Michigan Voter Information Center, since it may differ from their early voting site.

Eligible residents can register or update their registration in person at their local clerk’s office with proof of residency through 8 p.m. Election Day.

Those registering or updating their address can request and vote an absentee ballot at the clerk’s office. Voters already registered at their current address generally cannot request a new absentee ballot on Election Day, according to state guidance.

Absentee ballots

Voters already registered at their current address have until 4 p.m. Monday, Nov. 2, to apply for an absentee ballot in person at their local clerk’s office.

Completed absentee ballots must reach the voter’s local clerk or an official drop box in their city or township by 8 p.m. Nov. 3. Military and overseas ballots have separate receipt rules.

Huntington Woods voters can return ballots to City Hall, 26815 Scotia Road. The city’s fall newsletter lists outdoor drop boxes on the west and east sides of the building, available around the clock, and an indoor box accessible during business hours.
