Absentee ballots have now been mailed to City residents who have returned signed applications requesting them.

As City Hall remains closed to the general public due to COVID-19 safety precautions, residents should plan to return their ballots by mail or by utilizing the secure drop box located outside City Hall. The metal drop box, where signed election materials may be deposited, is located at the southwest entrance to City Hall, at 300 W. Baraga Ave.

Voters that need to make special accommodations for returning election materials may contact the Clerk’s Office directly at 906-225-8657.

Residents can apply for an absentee ballot, as well as check their ballot or application status, using the State of Michigan portal located at www.mi.gov/vote.
