NewsThe LWV Oklahoma is advocating for the end of the notary requirement for absentee ballots for the 2020 election cycle and has filed a suit in the Oklahoma Supreme Court naming Oklahoma Election Board Secretary Paul Ziriax as the respondent. The suit alleges that based on legislation passed in 2002, voters can sign a statement attesting that under the penalty of perjury the ballot information is correct instead getting their ballot notarized.
