Only your browser remembers it, in a cookie.

Endorsed by whom?
Michigan Democratic Party endorses the following:
- US candidates
- Statewide candidates
- Michigan State Senators/Representatives
- Statewide proposals
County Democratic Parties and Clubs endorse all other candidates.
Why a Democratic-only voter guide?
To provide Democratic-leaning voters in Michigan with an easy way to find
all candidates
and proposals endorsed by the Democratic Party. (Especially the non-partisan
races, like judges.)
For a reliable non-partisan source of
information about all candidates and proposals, see
vote411.org.
Why do I see only some offices?
If you don't see some candidates for your district, it's because we have not (yet)
received information about endorsed Democratic candidates for your area.
You can also try
your local county's Democratic party,
or the
MichiganDems
site for a listing of local candidates.
Who can I contact if I believe my right to vote has been unfairly denied?
I'm a Democratic candidate. Why don't I appear?
If you are a candidate and do not see your information, please contact us ASAP
via the
feedback page.
We especially
need to hear from county Democratic party leaders about endorsements for their regions.
Who is MIvoter.org?
This site was built by a group of passionate volunteers, working towards a more
democratic Michigan. Candidate data was supplied by the Michigan Democratic Party,
the relevant county Democratic parties, individual candidates, and their campaign websites.
How do I send feedback?
We'd love to hear your
feedback, especially if you're having trouble
with the site.
There's a funny video about MIvoter?

Amir for America,
who has a whole series of hilarious and informative
videos on getting people to vote.
