Compared with the previous general election in 2020, the ratio of returned absentee ballots is slightly down for this time period. At the three-week horizon before the 2020 election, 977,694 voters had returned an absentee ballot.

Eligible Michigan citizens can register to vote online or by mail until Monday, Oct. 21, or in person at their local clerk’s office up until 8 p.m. on Election Day.

The election is less than three weeks later. For anyone interested in seeing how many ballots have been returned in Michigan, a new dashboard offers up-to-date information ahead of the 2024 November election.
