Of course you do! Everybody knows Michigan is the smartest

state in the nation! Well I'm going to show you how because it's time for part

15 of our 50-part series: Better Know A Ballot. Tonight, the

greatest state in the nation: Michigan! "The Votin' Michiganders!" What makes

Michigan the greatest? Well did you know Michigan was admitted to the union in

1837 and is known as the "Great Lakes State" as well as the "Wolverine State?"

Because when Michigan gets angry, it shoots adamantium claws out of its

mitten. Another fun fact: Michigan is one of just

50 states that have been selected to vote in this year's presidential

election. So here's how you can get started voting

in Michigan right now. This is general information for how you

can vote early and by mail. Check out

betterknowaballot.com for more information on

all the links you need. The link for Michigan is below.

First, make sure you're registered to vote. You can register online;

just use our link. The online deadline is October 19th,

so do it now. Once you're registered, you can request an absentee ballot.

Again, you can just use our link to get there. Carefully fill it out,

sign it and either mail it, email it or hand deliver it to your local clerk's

office. You can also apply online. All ballot

requests must be returned before October 30th, but if you want to

dropbox or your local clerk. Your ballot must be

postmarked or hand delivered by November 2nd, but

the U.S. Postal Service recommends sending it before October 27th, so play

it safe and do it right away. Or, if you want to

vote in person before election day, you can cast an absentee

ballot at the clerk's office between September 24th
