When does early voting start in every state?
September 30th, 2016 | Posted by in Did you know? | Events | Political - (0 Comments) Voting has already started in a scattering of locations.
Here’s when early voting begins in a few states.
Illinois — Sept. 29 to Nov. 7. Starting Sept. 29, voters can only cast their ballots at their local election authority or a temporary location, but early voting expands to permanent polling places starting Oct. 24.
Indiana — Oct. 12. Early voting starts at the local county election board office or another designated location, but with an excuse, voters can cast a ballot by mail.
Michigan — There is no early voting in Michigan, as voters require a state-approved excuse to vote absentee.
Minnesota — Sept. 23
Ohio — Oct. 12.
Wisconsin — Early voting opening dates are set by the county/municipality. Wisconsin Rapids began voting Sept. 19.

Judge blocks Election Day registration at Illinois polling places
Right now, Congress is reviewing a proposal to eliminate every federal employee’s most basic rights on the job. If this becomes law, you will have almost no recourse to contest a wrongful termination or suspension.
We need you to call 888-775-3148 NOW and tell Congress: oppose any version of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that includes provisions to take away civil servants’ rights!
Here’s what you can do right now to protect your rights:
- Call 888-775-3148 and enter your zip code to be connected to your lawmaker.
- When you’re connected to your lawmaker, tell them this:
Hi, My name is _________ and I’m a federal employee from (name of town). There is a version of the National Defense Authorization Act that would take away my right to use the grievance and arbitration process to resolve wrongful suspensions and terminations. If that happens, my only choice would be to file a complaint with the Merit Systems Protection Board, which could take longer and cost taxpayers more money. This is nothing more than an effort to gut my rights as a federal worker. Please oppose any version of the NDAA that includes these harmful provisions.
Tell Congress: My rights are NOT negotiable! Call 888-775-3148 NOW
NOTE: Don’t Call from your Government Telephone or during your Work day.
In solidarity,
AFGE
