This bill amends Oklahoma's voter registration laws to enhance the verification of citizenship for individuals registering to vote. It requires all applicants to provide documentary proof of citizenship, which can include a birth certificate, passport, naturalization documents, or other specified forms of identification. The Secretary of the State Election Board is tasked with updating the voter registration form to include necessary identification details and a clear explanation of the registration process. Additionally, the bill establishes a classification system for voters, distinguishing between "verified voters" and "federal-only voters," the latter being those whose citizenship status has not been verified and who are only eligible to vote in federal contests.

The bill also outlines the responsibilities of election board officials in verifying citizenship, including utilizing various databases and notifying applicants of their registration status. It mandates that federal-only voters use provisional ballots and provides a timeline for them to submit proof of citizenship to ensure their votes are counted. Furthermore, the bill imposes penalties for election officials who fail to comply with the verification requirements and establishes record retention protocols for citizenship verification documents. An emergency clause is included, allowing the bill to take effect immediately upon passage.
