Polling place.

Tomorrow is Election Day. The polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. in Michigan.

Candidates are out making their final push. Mostly, they just want you to get out of your house and vote.

Not a lot of people go out and vote during midterm elections. In our last midterm election, less than half of Michigan's registered voters cast a ballot.

When you head to the polls tomorrow, your ballot is going to be long. Here are two quick links to get your started from the Michigan Secretary of State:

  • This linkshows whether your registered and where your polling place is.
  • And this linkwill show you what your ballot will look like.

So take a look, call your friends and family, and discuss the issues and candidates that face you as a voter.
Do I need an ID?

Yes you do, but if you don't have one, you can still cast your ballot.

From the Secretary of State's page:

Please note that voters who do not have an acceptable form of ID or failed to bring it with them to the polls still can vote. They simply sign a brief affidavit stating that they're not in possession of a photo ID. Their ballots are included with all others and counted on Election Day.
