Registering to Vote
You can register to vote anytime up to and including on election day. If you are registering within two weeks before an election, and you want to vote in the upcoming election, you need to register in person at the township office and bring proof of residence – photo ID, Utility Bill, or other bill that shows you live at the address where you are registering.

Any other time you can register to vote by:

  • Registering online on www.michigan.gov
  • Download and fill out application
  • Visit the Clerk's Office (Tues, Wed 1-4pm, Thurs 9am – 4pm)​

​For more information about registering to vote, visit the Election section of Michigan’s website.

Become a Permanent Absent Voter

As a convenience to Casco voters, a list of permanent absent voters is maintained by the Deputy Clerk. As a permanent absentee voter, you receive an application for an Absentee Ballot ahead of each election without having to request it.


To become a permanent Absentee voter just call the Clerk's office or send us a note and we can make you a permanent AV voter.​
