Initiative and referendum; specifying time period for certain election. Effective date.

SB 2032 sets specific timeframes for holding special elections on initiative and referendum measures in Oklahoma. It requires statewide special elections to occur between 70 and 250 days after being called, while local elections (including school districts) must be held at least 60 days (or 45 days for school runoff elections) after the call. The bill clarifies that the Governor must set election dates within these ranges after petitions are validated, and it makes related election language gender-neutral. These changes directly affect voters, election officials, and school districts by standardizing how and when initiative/referendum votes are scheduled.
