The bill amends Section 7-114 of Title 26 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to proof of identity for voters. It modifies the requirements for acceptable proof of identity by introducing a new provision that allows a voter identification card issued by the county election board to serve as proof of identity for elections held before January 1, 2027, without needing to meet certain requirements. For elections conducted after this date, voters must present proof of identity that meets specific criteria, including a photograph and an expiration date. Additionally, the bill mandates the development of a photo identification card by Service Oklahoma, which will be provided free of charge to registered voters who do not possess other acceptable forms of identification.

The bill also outlines the process for voters who are unable to produce proof of identity, allowing them to cast a provisional ballot by signing an affidavit. The provisional ballot will only be counted if it meets specific verification criteria related to the voter's name, address, date of birth, and identification number. Furthermore, the Secretary of the State Election Board is granted the authority to create rules to implement these requirements. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
