What is the difference between a primary and general election?

In a primary election, voters choose a party and vote for candidates from that party only. If votes are cast for candidates from different parties in a primary election, the partisan ballot will be rejected. Choosing a party for a primary election is not the same as declaring a party.

In a general election, all voters elect officials from the party nominees and independent candidates.

Candidate Financial Forms

Candidates are required to file financial declaration forms. These forms are available at from the Michigan Secretary of State.

How Important is One Vote?

  • In 1776, one vote made English the official language in America instead of German.
  • In 1845, one vote brought Texas into the union.
  • In 1868, one vote saved President Andrew Johnson from impeachment.
  • In 1876, one vote gave Rutherford B. Hayes the Presidency of the United States.
  • In 1933, one vote gave Adolph Hitler leadership of the Nazi Party.
  • In 1941, one vote saved Selective Service – just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked.
