ATTENTION CITY OF EAST JORDAN VOTERS –
Please note the City of East Jordan is required by law to mail a new Voter Identification Card to EVERY registered voter as a result of the recent redistricting process from the 2020 census. Voters should expect their new updated card in the upcoming weeks as these are starting to get mailed out this week. The district changes do NOT affect your precinct location at City Hall. Please destroy your old voter ID card and keep the one you receive.
If you receive a card for someone who no longer lives at your residence, please mark “unknown” and place it back in the mail to the city. By federal law, this allows the city to legally start the cancellation process which takes four years. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact City Hall at 231-536-3381.
