The Board of State Canvassers was created by the State Constitution of 1850. Over the years, the structure of the board has changed. Currently, the Board is composed of four members who are appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate.
Two board members are selected from each of the two political parties receiving the greatest number of votes in the last election for Secretary of State. Board members serve four-year terms. The terms are staggered so that the term of a Republican seat and the term of a Democratic seat expire in February of each odd-numbered year.
The duties of the Board of State Canvassers include:
Board meetings held at the Delta Township Office Building will be streamed live on either the Department of State YouTube channel or the Board of State Canvassers YouTube channel.
Board meetings held at the Binsfeld Office Building will be streamed live on Michigan Senate TV.
Following all meetings, the meeting video is added to the Board of State Canvassers YouTube channel.
