------------- FAQ's for In-Person Voting-------------
1) Can I still vote at the polls even though I requested an absentee ballot? Yes, do NOT use your absentee ballot. Go to your polling place, tell the poll worker you requested an absentee ballot but did not use it, sign an affidavit, and vote the ballot you are issued.
2) How do I know if my polling place has changed? Go to the OK Voter Portal https://okvoterportal.okelections.us/ and enter your name and address to find your polling place. Some polling places have changed due to census redistricting or power outages. Call 405.286.9909 for assistance.
3) Can I take notes or a sample ballot into the voting booth? Yes, notes and a sample ballot are allowed.
4) If there is a problem with my registration and I can’t vote a regular ballot, can I still vote? Yes, by law you can request a provisional ballot. If the county election board can verify that you are a registered voter and have not already cast a ballot, your provisional ballot will be counted.
5) What Covid-19 precautions should I take?
- Go to the polls at “off-peak” hours: mid-morning hours between 9:30 and 11:30 and mid-afternoon hours between 1:30 and 3:30 are often less busy.
