This bill amends existing election laws in Oklahoma, specifically addressing the provision of polling places and the process for incapacitated voters to request absentee ballots. It mandates that school boards must provide rooms in school buildings as polling places at no cost, replacing the previous language that allowed them to do so at their discretion. Additionally, the bill updates the process for incapacitated voters who are unable to vote in person by allowing a wider range of individuals, including physician assistants and nurse practitioners, to provide the necessary sworn statement confirming the voter's incapacity.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the request for an absentee ballot can be signed by a witness if the voter is unable to sign their name, and it allows any person chosen by the voter, who meets certain criteria, to act as their agent in the absentee voting process. The agent must ensure that the absentee ballot is returned to the county election board by the election deadline. This legislation is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
