Here's how to change your vote if you've already sent in your absentee ballot

The list of candidates vying for the democratic nomination got a lot shorter this weekend -- but that may pose a slight issue for Michigan voters who already sent in their absentee ballots.

Democratic candidate Amy Klobuchar ended her campaign Monday. Pete Buttigieg announced the end of his campaign on Sunday night, and Tom Steyer ended his run on Saturday. That leaves five democratic candidates in the running just one day before Super Tuesday and Michigan's primary election on Tuesday, March 10.

For voters who already sent in their absentee ballots, this weekend's developments may mean "spoiling their ballot." Spoiling your original ballot means it no longer counts, and you will get a new one.

According to the Secretary of State's website, if a voter wishes to change their vote they need to submit a written request to their local clerk's office by mail before the 2 p.m. Saturday, March 7 deadline.
