Conduct of elections; prohibiting state or political subdivision from enacting certain voting method; authorizing civil action for certain violations. Emergency.

SB 386 prohibits Oklahoma state and local governments from using ranked-choice voting systems, which allow voters to rank candidates by preference and tabulate results in multiple rounds until a candidate achieves a majority. It directly affects candidates, voters, and election officials in jurisdictions that might adopt such systems. The bill declares existing ranked-choice voting ordinances void and authorizes the Attorney General to enforce the prohibition, while allowing affected individuals to file civil lawsuits seeking court orders to stop violations. Violators could face court costs and attorney fees if sued.
