Hello Fellow VAN Users!

With the 2024 General Election over and the Thanksgiving holiday upon us, we wanted to reach out with some updates about what is coming next for VAN.

Post-General Election Updates to Committees:

With the election finished, we are going to start updating committees in Votebuilder. For candidates who did not win your elections, your committee will be moved to Inactive status on November 22nd. Make sure you finalize any necessary tasks before that date. For candidates who won their races, we will be archiving your survey questions and updating your committee’s names to reflect your status as elected officials.

We expect vote history of the November 5th general election will be included in the December voter file update, which should be available in VAN by mid-December.
 

May Elections:

If you are running for office in the May 6th 2025 municipal elections, now is the time to request VAN Access! To request VAN access for a campaign, you'll need to fill out the VAN Access Request Form. Once we've received your form, we'll follow up with more details and next steps.

Support Channels and Resources:

We keep a list of all of our available support channels and resources in our knowledge base:
Available Help and Resources. You can also set up a time to meet with us on zoom at calendly.com/mivan.

As always, you can reach out to our team at van@michigandems.com at any time.

All the best,
MDP Data Team
