Final week to request absentee ballots for June 28 primary election

The deadline to request absentee ballots by mail is approaching. Applications must be received by the county election board no later than 5 p.m. Monday, June 13.
Haskell County Election Board Secretary Rhonda Hurst said absentee voting is available to all voters and can be submitted several ways.
“In Oklahoma, no excuse is needed to vote by absentee ballot, and it’s easy to apply. Voters can submit their application online, in-person, by fax, mail or even email.”
Voters can apply online using the OK Voter Portal at oklahoma.gov/elections/ovp. Applications are also available at the county Election Board or can be downloaded at oklahoma.gov/elections.
Hurst reminds voters that only the applicant can submit his or her own absentee ballot application. It is against the law to submit an absentee ballot application for another person. Voters who submit their application in-person at the county election board will be asked to provide proof of identity.
Voters with questions about absentee voting should contact the Haskell County Election Board at (918)967-8792 or HaskellCounty@elections.ok.gov.
The Haskell County Election Board is located at 202 E. Main St., Suite 1 and is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
