What do I fill in?

Only the following blocks are required:

Block 1: Select the category that describes you.

Block 2: To vote in primary elections, you must enter your political party affiliation. If you are registered as non-partisan or undeclared, you cannot vote in party primaries. If you want to change your political party affiliation, submit a completed FPCA indicating your new party preference to the local election official not less than 24 days before the election. Oklahoma does not allow political party changes from April 1-August 31 in even-numbered years. If you submit a political party change during that period, it will be held and processed on September 1. Political party affiliation is not required if only requesting absentee ballots for general elections.

Block 3: Name (Last, First, Middle)

Block 4: Date of Birth

Your current and valid Oklahoma Driver's License number OR the last four digits of your Social Security number is required for voter registration. If you do not possess any of these identification numbers, please indicate this in Block 9. The State shall assign a number that will serve to identify you for voter registration purposes.

Block 5: Recommended but not required. Provide your contact information to allow your local election official to follow up if more information is required.

Block 6: Oklahoma allows you to receive the blank ballot by mail, fax or email. Please rank your preference of how you would like to receive your absentee ballot. Provide your fax number or email address in Block 5. Please ensure that this email address does not block or filter emails forwarded from your county election official. If you do not make a selection, then your local election official will mail your ballot to you.

Block 7: Complete street address of your Oklahoma voting residence. A post office box is not sufficient. If your address includes a rural route, describe its location in Block 9. This address must be within the county where you claim legal voting residence.

Block 8: Complete address where you want your ballot sent, usually where you live now.

Block 9: Provide any information that may assist the local election official in accepting this application.

Affirmation: Sign and date. No witness or notary required.

Follow-up

  • Want to return your voted ballot by fax? Oklahoma allows you to return your voted ballot by fax if you receive your ballot 30 days or less prior to election day. Refer to faxing instructions above.
  • If you have not received your absentee ballot in a timely manner use the Federal Write-In Absentee Ballot.
  • In addition to mailing a regular ballot, Oklahoma provides a State Special Write-In Absentee Ballot 90 days before the election to any voter unable to vote using the regular absentee voting process due to military contingencies or due to living in extremely remote areas. This ballot allows you to vote in local, State and Federal offices. To request it, write in Block 9: “Due to living in an isolated or extremely remote area of the world, I cannot follow the regular application procedure for an absentee ballot. I request a special write-in absentee ballot.”
