Elections 2025

The 2025 Election Schedule for Dexter Township
is as follows:

May 6, 2025 – Dexter Community Schools Bond Millage 
November 4, 2025 – Career and Technical Education (CTE) Millage for the Washtenaw ISD 

Election Status

On Tuesday, November 4, 2025, Dexter Township voters will go to the polls to vote on a 1-mill, 10-year Career and Technical Education millage for the Washtenaw ISD. The proposal would fund expanded hands-on learning programs, offset shortfalls in state and federal funding, and address a 69% increase in CTE enrollment countywide. 

Since this election will take place in an off year (special election), the Washtenaw ISD will be responsible for the reimbursement to all of the municipality’s costs incurred to open and run the precincts and host the election. 

Dexter Township is not constitutionally subjected to host early 9-day voting, the language in the Proposal 2 Law states 9-day early voting is not mandated for off year elections, only for even year State and Federal Elections.

The consensus of the Washtenaw County Clerk’s is that we would forgo offering 9-day early voting, as this would save the school and taxpayers additional expenses. 

The Dexter Township Clerk’s office will go through all the standard election processes, (for those wanting to vote by Absentee Voter Ballot) sending out absentee voter applications to those who are not already listed on the Perm Ballot List, holding Election Commission Meetings, posting all notices for the election in printed paper and online, and an invitation to attend the public accuracy testing.

The polls will be open on Election Day only, November 4, 2025 from 7am-8pm, where you will have the choice of receiving your ballot to vote in person or bring your Absentee Voter Ballot to tabulate yourself.
