Conduct of elections; requiring signing of certain oath; authorizing provisional ballot for certain persons; requiring update of voter registration. Effective date.
This Oklahoma bill requires voters to sign an oath confirming their current physical address when casting ballots and mandates that precinct officials provide a voter registration update form to anyone unable to sign the oath. The legislation also extends the retention period for precinct registry records to 24 months after an election and allows individuals who cannot attest to the address oath to receive provisional ballots while updating their registration. These changes directly affect voters and election officials by modifying how voter eligibility is verified and how election records are maintained. The bill takes effect on January 1, 2026.
