Bill Summary

An Act relating to presidential electors; amending 26 O.S. 2021, Section 10-101, which relates to nomination of presidential electors; modifying eligibility requirements for certain nominees; and declaring an emergency.

AI Summary

This bill amends Oklahoma's law on the nomination of presidential electors to require that a recognized political party's nominees for President and Vice President must be natural-born citizens as required by the U.S. Constitution. The bill declares an emergency, allowing it to take effect immediately upon passage and approval. It is important to note that the term "natural-born citizen" is a specific legal requirement for the U.S. presidency, and the bill seeks to enforce this constitutional requirement for political party nominations in Oklahoma.
