Important!! Don't Forget to Request Your Absentee Ballot -- EVERYONE is Entitled to Vote Absentee

Dear Colleagues:

Welcome to 2020! As you all know, this is an election year, and it is time to start thinking about how you are going to vote, not for who, but how. With the passage of the Statewide Ballot Proposal 3, all eligible and registered voters in Michigan may now vote early by requesting an absentee ballot.
You may request an absentee ballot pdf form here.

Important dates for voting in 2020:

· March 10 - Michigan Presidential Primary Day (pdf info)
· May 5 - Local Elections in some Cities/Townships (resource)
· August 4 - Primary Election (resource)
· November 3 - General Election (resource)

If you are interested in the AAUP-AFT, Local 6075 Political Action Committee, please call (313) 577-1750 or email office@aaupaft.org.

The Political Action Committee (PAC) is your direct link to support local candidates who are friends to public higher education and care about the issues we care about. Voluntary PAC contributions help us have a voice in Lansing in order to protect quality higher education at Wayne State University and in Michigan. In 2018, we averaged $3/member in donations -- can we raise the bar this year? Donate here.
