An Act relating to elections; amending 26 O.S. 2021, Section 4-101, which relates to voter registration; modifying conditions for voter eligibility; and providing an effective date. SUBJECT: Elections

AI Summary

This bill amends the Oklahoma Statutes to modify the conditions for voter eligibility. The key provisions are: 1. Persons convicted of a felony can become eligible to register to vote once they have fully served their sentence, including any term of incarceration, parole, supervision, or probation, or received a commutation or pardon that reduced or eliminated their sentence. 2. Individuals who have been adjudged as incapacitated persons are ineligible to register to vote, but become eligible once they are no longer deemed incapacitated. Partially incapacitated individuals may still be eligible to register to vote unless their order of partial incapacitation specifically restricts their voter registration. The bill will become effective on January 1, 2025.
