Dearborn voters can vote early in person this FebruaryThe February 2024 Presidential Primary Election is the first time that the City will offer early in-person voting ahead of an election. The change comes as a result of the passage of Proposal 2 of 2022, which mandates that all Michigan communities provide at least nine days of early voting ahead of an election.

Early voting in Dearborn will take place between Saturday, Feb. 17, and Sunday, Feb. 25. Voters can request and cast a ballot between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. at the Ford Community & Performing Arts Center.

Election workers will also support in-person voting at polling locations throughout the city on Tuesday, Feb. 27, when polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.

In addition to early voting and voting in person on Election Day, Dearborn voters will continue to have the option to request an absentee ballot from the City Clerk’s Office online, by mail, or in person.
