It's Election Day. Time to hit the polls.

Here are a few things you will need today to vote.

Umbrella: It is expected to be rainy. Temperatures are expected to be mild, however.

Patience: Voter turnout is expected to be high and lines could be long.

Identification: You will need to present a photo ID such as a Michigan driver's license, state identification card, U.S. passport, or military, student or tribal ID card. You can still vote by signing an affidavit if you don't have an acceptable ID card.

Voter Guide: Take the Free Press with you to the polls.

Polls: Open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. If you are still in line at 8 p.m., you will still be able to cast a ballot. Avoid these peak voting times: 7 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 8 p.m.

There are four Michigan counties — Dickinson, Gogebic, Iron and Menominee — in the Upper Peninsula in the Central Time Zone. Polls close there at 9 p.m.

You can check your voter registration status and find their polling place at www.Michigan.gov/vote.

And reminder: No selfies while voting. Photos and videos are prohibited.

After polls close, Michigan election results will be live here
