Early voting is open at Inkster City Hall. Here's everything you need before Nov. 1.

INKSTER, Mich. You do not have to wait until Nov. 3 to vote. Early in-person voting is open at Inkster City Hall, and it runs every day, including the weekend, through Sunday, Nov. 1.

It works just like Election Day: you fill out your ballot and feed it into the tabulator yourself. The difference is that any registered Inkster voter can use it, no matter which precinct you normally vote in.
