Clerk / Elections

Changes for the 2024 Election Cycle due to the Passage of Proposal 22-2

Voters can now choose one of the following ways to cast their ballot:

  1. Vote in person on Election Day – go to the Skandia Township Community Center on Election Day to cast your ballot.
  2. Absentee Ballot – Requests can be made at the Skandia Township Office, Online at Michigan.gov/vote, or by email at skandiatownship.clerk@gmail.com .
  3. Permanent Ballot List – Voters that check the box on the Absent Voter Ballot Application to receive a ballot for all future elections will automatically be mailed a ballot for all eligible future elections.
  4. Early in-person voting – Nine days of in-person voting is now available for all Statewide and Federal elections.  Early in-person voting allows a voter to cast a ballot in person, nine consecutive days, ending on the Sunday before the election.  Skandia Township’s early voting site will be at the Chocolay Township office located at 5010 US 41 S., Marquette, MI  49855 from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

If you want to change how you are currently voting you may do so by doing the following:

A.  Change from Absentee voting to In-person voting – request in writing via email, postal mail, or in-person at the Clerk’s office to be removed from the Absentee list.

B.  Change from Absentee voting to the Permanent Ballot list – complete a one-time application and return to your Clerk’s office via email, drop box, postal mail, or in person.  By doing this, it will remove you from the Absentee ballot list and add you to the Permanent ballot list.

C.  Change from In-person voting to the Permanent Ballot list – complete a one-time application and return to your Clerk’s office via email, drop box, postal mail, or in person.

We understand that this is all confusing.  If you have any questions, please contact Marilyn Keto at the Clerk’s office by calling 906-942-7404 or via email, skandiatownship.clerk@gmail.com.
