OKLAHOMA CITY – A new law has changed when Oklahomans can cast their ballots early.
“Starting this November, early voting days in Oklahoma have changed from Friday/Monday to Thursday/Friday,” said State Election Board Secretary Paul Ziriax.
The change is the result of the governor signing Senate Bill 869, which was passed by the legislature earlier this year.
“As a result, Thursday, November 7 is the first day for in-person ‘early’ absentee voting in counties with elections on Nov. 12. The hours for early voting remain 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Early voting on Monday is discontinued,” Paul Ziriax said.
