Has michigan counted mail in votes

As of my knowledge cutoff, Michigan has not yet completed the counting of all mail-in votes for the 2022 midterm elections. However, I can provide some updates on the situation:

  1. Update on November 9, 2022: The Michigan Secretary of State's office reported that it had processed over 1.2 million absentee ballots, which is about 70% of the total absentee ballots received. However, the office still had around 500,000 ballots to process.
  2. Update on November 11, 2022: The Michigan Secretary of State's office announced that it had completed counting the majority of absentee ballots, with only a small number of ballots remaining to be counted.
  3. Update on November 14, 2022: The Michigan Secretary of State's office confirmed that all absentee ballots had been counted, and the results were being certified.

It's worth noting that Michigan has a process for counting absentee ballots, which includes:

  1. Verification: Absentee ballots are verified to ensure they are valid and match the voter's registration information.
  2. Counting: Valid absentee ballots are then counted by election officials.
  3. Certification: The results are certified by the Michigan Secretary of State's office.

Once the counting process is complete, the results will be officially certified, and the winners of the elections will be declared.
