Oklahoma Legislature Adjourns Without Passing Many Election Law Bills

On May 26, the Oklahoma legislature adjourned. It did not pass any significant election law bills.

Bills that failed to pass were: (1) SB 518, which would have specified that initiative and referendum petitions must be signed by voters who use their “legal” name and which would have charged a filing fee of up to $750 before an initiative could start to circulateo; (2) SB 568, which would have repealed the straight-ticket device; (3) SB 288, which would have reduced the number of signatures needed on petitions in lieu of the filing fee.
