To the Editor:

To vote in the Nov. 6 presidential election, register by Oct. 9 with your city/township/county clerk or Secretary of State. On www.michigan.gov/vote, check if you are registered, find clerk’s info, correct precinct, map, poll times, and sample ballot.

Voters are asked to show a current picture ID. Voters who do not have a picture ID can vote after signing an affidavit. Their ballot will count.

Acceptable ID includes driver’s license, state or federal governmentissued picture ID, US passport, military, tribal, high school or college student picture ID.

First time voters must appear in person to vote in their first election except those over 60, disabled or overseas voters. If unable to “vote in person,” you can request an absentee ballot “in person” from the clerk where you are registered by the day preceding the election. Tell all college students about this procedure now. Make it count! Be informed, register and Vote!
