OKLAHOMA ABSENTEE BALLOTS

Who Can Absentee Vote in Oklahoma?

Any registered voter in Oklahoma may vote by absentee ballot. It is not necessary to give a reason for voting absentee.

How Can I Acquire an Absentee Ballot?

Applications for absentee ballots must be made in writing. Absentee ballot application forms are available from all county election boards and from the State Election Board. Using this form is not a requirement, however. Applicants may choose to write a letter to their county election board to apply for absentee ballots. The letter must contain the following information.

- Voter's name
- Voter's birth date
- The address at which the voter is registered to vote
- The election or elections for which the voter is requesting ballots
- The address to which the ballots should be mailed
- Voter's signature

Voters may apply for absentee ballots for one election, for several elections or for all elections in which they are eligible to vote during the calendar year in which the application is submitted. Applicants may mail the application, fax it or deliver it in person to the county election board's office. Voters may also choose to send a telegram to apply. The deadline to apply for an absentee ballot to be sent out through the mail is always 5 p.m. on Wednesday preceding the election.

Voters may cast an absentee ballot in person at the county election board office on Friday and Monday before all elections, and also on the Saturday before Federal or Statewide Elections. An Absentee Voting Board will be on duty from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday and Monday, and from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday. In-person absentee voters must fill out and sign an application form when they arrive to vote.

How do I Return the Absentee Ballot and What is the Deadline?

Any absentee ballot that is sent out through the mail must also be returned by mail. In order to be counted, an absentee ballot must be received by the county election board before 7:00 p.m. on election day.

Other Information on Absentee Voting in Oklahoma

Emergency Absentee Voters:
Voters who become incapacitated after 5:00 p.m. on the Tuesday preceding an election may receive an absentee ballot through special emergency procedures. These voters must make a written request to the county election board. The request must be accompanied by a statement from a doctor that the voter is incapacitated and will be unable to vote in person on election day. The voter's request and the doctor's statement must be taken to the county election board office by a person the voter chooses. The person becomes the voter's "agent." The county election board can provide a form to be used for both the voter's request and the doctor's statement. The agent will receive the voter's ballot and will deliver it to the voter. After the voter marks the ballot, the agent must return it to the county election board office before 7 p.m. election day.
