AI Summary
This bill amends existing Oklahoma law, specifically Section 383 of Title 19, to allow counties to publish questions submitted to voters online, in addition to or in place of traditional newspaper publication or posting notices in public places. This means that for questions regarding issues like raising funds or authorizing taxes, counties can now choose to post the full details of the question, including amounts, rates, and effective dates, on their official websites or social media pages, providing an alternative method for informing the public about upcoming votes. The bill also specifies an effective date of November 1, 2026.
