HJR 1019 Oklahoma House · 2025 Regular Session

Oklahoma Constitution; resolution; Article III; general election; ballot title; filing.

HJR 1019 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring that every general election race for federal, state, county, and municipal offices in Oklahoma include a candidate from each political party recognized under state law that filed a candidate for that race. To qualify, a party's candidate must have filed during the designated timeframe and won their party's primary or runoff election. The amendment would apply to all such elections, though it does not restrict the Legislature from maintaining mandatory primary systems. The measure would take effect if approved by voters, requiring the Legislature to pass implementing laws within the next session.
