Summary

Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson announced that the state is on track to break its voter turnout record, with 45.8% of registered voters having already cast early or absentee ballots.

As a critical battleground, Michigan could play a key role in deciding both the presidential race and control of Congress. Polling averages show Vice President Harris narrowly leading Trump in the state.

Michigan also hosts an important Senate race to replace retiring Democrat Debbie Stabenow and several competitive House contests.

Polls remain open until 8 p.m.

      I actually dropped mine off at the township clerks office just so I could get one of the new stickers.

      Sadly, they were out of the werewolf.

      Honest to God I think these stickers might be a significant driver for the increased turnout.

        Can you imagine if a 12 year old saved democracy with werewolf art?

        As a European I’m low key considering looking for one on EBay after the election. It’s one for the history books.

          I accidentally grabbed 2. I could be sitting on a gold mine!
