Oklahoma Primary Election Tuesday, Thousands Of Absentee Ballots Expected

Voters across the state will cast their votes in the first major election since the pandemic caused wide-spread shut-downs and cancellations in Oklahoma.

Tuesday is the primary election for all five of Oklahoma's U.S. House of Representative seats as well as the Senate seat currently held by Jim Inhofe. The postponed school board elections will also happen Tuesday, along with a state question that would expand Medicare across the state.

For everyone voting in-person Tuesday, there are many safety measures in place for poll-workers and voters.
