Welcome to VAN/Votebuilder in Michigan. This guide is designed to give you an overview of information and features available in Michigan VAN, answers to frequently asked questions, and links to other helpful resources. If you have questions that are not covered here, please feel free to reach out to us at van@michigandems.com and someone from our team will be in touch. 


It is designed to be a supplement to VAN documentation and resources, not a replacement for them. We will cover best practices, Michigan specific considerations, and high level explanations of what things are. For the specific process of performing an action in VAN, we’ll often point you towards VAN’s help documentation instead of slapping an MDP logo on what amounts to the same steps. Check out our Available Help and Resources section for links to VAN’s help resources and documentation, as well as other resources available to you.
