Webp vote3

St. Joseph Charter Township  issued the following announcement on March 30.

On Friday night, Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed an executive order for the May 5 election--expanding AV voting and requiring at least one polling place to remain open for those who wish to vote in person or cannot vote AV.

Governor Gretchen Whitmer today signed Executive Order 2020-27, encouraging Michiganders to vote absentee by allowing the Department of State to assist local jurisdictions in mailing absentee ballot applications to every registered voter, and to provide absentee ballots directly to new registrants. Local jurisdictions will still need to keep at least one polling place open for those who wish to vote in-person or are unable to vote by mail.
