Register to Vote in Benzie County, MI
This service isn't handled by the County Clerk. Here's where to go instead.
Michigan is one of the few states where the county clerk does not register voters. Register with the clerk of the city, township or village where you live — not with the Benzie County Clerk. MCL § 168.499(1) says an elector registers “by applying in person and signing the registration application before the clerk or assistant clerk of the township, city, or village in which the precinct is located.” Subsection (2) forbids that clerk to take a fee for it, so anyone asking you to pay is wrong.
You can also register online or check your registration at Michigan Voter Information Center, at any Secretary of State branch, or in person at your local clerk's office up to and including election day. The Benzie County Clerk on 231-882-9671can tell you which local clerk covers your address — that is the county's election role.
