Early voting in the Michigan primary is underway, about 700K have cast ballots

(Michigan Advance) In the first three days of early voting, around 700,000 ballots have been cast in Michigan, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said at a Monday news conference in Detroit.

Voters approved several changes to Michigan’s election process in 2022, including nine days of in-person early voting before elections, with the state’s primary election on the horizon on Aug. 6.



This is a significant election cycle, Benson said, one where the eyes of the nation are on Michigan, just as they were during the 2020 presidential election.

“Our citizens are very likely to cast votes in this cycle that will determine the next president of the United States,” Benson said. “We have just wrapped up the first weekend of early voting for that August primary. And notably, it is the first significant statewide election in which we are seeing early voting play out.” ...............(more)
