AI Summary
This bill amends Oklahoma law to modify the dates for certain elections. The key provisions are:
1. It changes the language from "to fill an elective office" to "for any purpose" in the list of allowable election dates, expanding the types of elections that can be held on those dates.
2. It provides an exception for special elections called by the Governor, allowing them to be held on the same dates as the regular election dates listed in the law.
3. It removes the provision that allowed municipalities with a population over 250,000 to hold elections on the second Tuesday of December in odd-numbered years.
4. It sets the effective date of the changes as November 1, 2023.
