For the first time since the passage of a new voting rights act in 2022, Michigan residents will have the opportunity to cast their vote early and in person for nine consecutive days before the presidential primary election day, starting on Saturday, Feb. 17 and continuing through Sunday, Feb. 25.
Unlike other voting methods, Leelanau County residents who want to take advantage of early in-person voting will need to report to the county government center at 8527 E. Government Center Dr. in Suttons Bay. This will be the only early voting site in the county, and it will be available for early voting from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. from Feb. 17-25.
“When those polls close at 5 p.m., if we have a lineup, everyone of course will be allowed to vote. And all the stuff will be secured until we open the next day,” Leelanau County Clerk Michelle Crocker told the Enterprise.
