SAGINAW, MI -- Polls close 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3, as Michigan decides issues ranging from the presidential race, state and federal representatives and local ballot issues.
Follow along with MLive as we report and update the unofficial voting results from the Tuesday, Nov. 3 elections in Saginaw and Bay counties. Projected winners will appear in bold once the Associated Press calls a race or all ballots are counted. A large portion of this year’s vote will come via absentee ballot, which may create some delays in projections or full counts.
A technology error on election night in Bay County left several thousand votes off the county’s initial, unofficial results. The error has since been corrected and it did not change the outcome of any races or ballot proposals, officials said Monday, Nov. 9. The results below have been corrected to reflect that change.
