The bill amends existing laws regarding school district elections in Oklahoma, specifically altering the dates for general and primary elections for members of the board of education. The general election will now take place on the second Tuesday of November in odd-numbered years and on the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November in even-numbered years. The primary election is shifted to the second Tuesday in September of odd-numbered years and the fourth Tuesday of August in even-numbered years, with provisions for aligning with Presidential Preferential Primaries when applicable.

Additionally, the bill modifies the filing process for candidates, allowing them to file declarations of candidacy starting at 8:00 a.m. on the second Wednesday in April and ending at 5:00 p.m. on the following Friday. This change replaces the previous timeline that began on the first Monday in December. The bill aims to streamline the election process and ensure that candidates meet eligibility requirements as outlined in existing statutes. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
