Last week to request absentee ballots for March 4th election

The deadline to request absentee ballots by mail is approaching. Applications must be received by the County Election Board no later than 5 p.m. Monday, February 17.

Bryan County Election Board Secretary Kimberly Norris said absentee voting is available to all voters and applications can be submitted several ways. “In Oklahoma, no excuse is needed to vote by absentee ballot, and it’s easy to apply! Voters can submit their application online, in-person, by fax, mail, or even email,” said Kimberly Norris.

Voters can apply online using the OK Voter Portal at oklahoma.gov/elections/ ovp. Applications are also available at the County Election Board or can be downloaded at oklahoma.gov/elections.

Norris reminds voters that only the applicant can submit his or her own absentee ballot application.

It is against the law to submit an absentee ballot application for another person.

Voters with questions about absentee voting should contact the County Election Board at 580-9243228 or BryanCounty@elections.ok.gov.

The Bryan County Election Board is located at 402 W. Evergreen St, Ste A-2, Durant, OK and is open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. For questions, please contact the Election Board at 580-924-3228 or Bryan-County@elections.ok.gov.
