2008 Election Dates:
Primary Election - Tuesday, August 5, 2008
The Primary Election will be held on Tuesday, August 5. You
will be allowed to vote either Republican or Democratic for federal,
state and county offices. Precinct Delegates will also be elected
in this election. To have your name placed on the ballot as a
Precinct Delegate you must file an Affidavit of Identity with your
local or county clerk by May 13 at 4:00 pm. The last day to
register to vote prior to the August Election is July 7.
Presidential Election - Tuesday, November 4, 2008
This is the date of the Presidential Election. This
ballot will have many issues on this ballot and we do expect a large
turnout. The last day to register to vote prior to the Presidential
Election is October 6.
Changes in Precinct Locations:
Growth in the City and stricter security standards in
our schools have necessitated changes in polling place locations.
The citizens of Grandville have been well-served by the Grandville
Public Schools, Grandville Christian School, and Fellowship Chr.
Ref. Church. Beginning with the May 6th Election five of
our precincts will be in new locations. This is very exciting for
those who work in the Clerk’s office - changes in routines and new
challenges.
We have been working with representatives from the new
locations and City Council has authorized the changes. New voter ID
cards will be sent early in March to the voter that will be using a
new location for voting. The voter ID card will tell you your
assigned polling location and that is where you must vote on
Election Day.
If you
know which precinct you are assigned to, the following table will
help you determine the location.
