In-person early voting turnout up, Oklahoma election data shows

n-person early voting turnout is up from June’s primary election four years ago, according to state data.

Just over 48,400 Oklahomans voted in person last week ahead of Tuesday’s election. This eclipses early voting numbers in 2022, the last time the governor position was on the ballot. That primary saw over 29,000 voters cast ballots in person ahead of primary election day.

Just before 2 p.m. on Monday, 19,525 mail ballots had been submitted, according to Misha Mohr, a spokesperson for the State Election Board. The board received just over 27,700 mail ballots in total in the June 2022 primary. Mail-in ballots for this election are due to county election boards by 7 p.m. on Tuesday, and hand delivered ballots are due by the end of Monday.

Two-thirds of this election’s in-person early voters were registered Republicans, over a quarter were Democrats and about 5% were independents. Less than 1% were Libertarians. About half of Oklahoma voters are registered Republicans, a quarter are Democrats, a fifth are independents and about 1% are Libertarians, according to voter registration data from the end of last month.
