Message From Michigan Bureau of Elections concerning Third Party Outreach to Voters

Vote

Submitted by Berrien & Cass Counties in October 2024.

News
Our office and clerks have received several complaints from Michigan voters concerned about text messages they’ve received urging them to return their absentee ballots.
