Voter Registration Deadline Approaches

Tuesday, May 5, 2026 — Sequoyah County Election Board Secretary Ruby Brunk recently announced May 22 is the last day to apply for voter registration and be eligible to vote in the June 16 primary election.

Brunk said that persons who are United States citizens, residents of Oklahoma, and at least 17 and a half years old are eligible to apply for voter registration. However, you must be at least 18 years old to vote.

Applications must be received by the County Election Board or postmarked no later than midnight, May 22. Applications postmarked after that time will be accepted but will not be processed until after the 2026 election. Applications may also be submitted to any motor vehicle agency that is also an official voter registration agency by the submission deadline.

Applicants will be notified in writing when their application has been processed. Approved voters will receive a voter identification card in the mail. Some may receive a letter that explains the reason or reasons the application was not approved. Brunk said those who do not receive a response within 30 days of submitting their application should contact the County Election Board office immediately.

The Sequoyah County Election Board reminds voters that the County Election Board Secretary must approve applications before they can vote.

Registered voters who have moved to Sequoyah County from a different county or state will need to complete a new Voter Registration Application to be eligible for elections in Sequoyah County. If you have moved within the county and need to update your address, you may make changes online using the OK Voter Portal at oklahoma.gov/elections/ovp or complete a Voter Registration Application.

Voter registration applications can be downloaded from the State Election Board website at oklahoma.gov/elections. You may also complete a form at your county election board. Most post offices, tag agencies, and public libraries have applications available upon request.

The Sequoyah County Election Board is located at 110 E Creek Ave and is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. For questions, please contact the Election Board at 918-775-2614 or sequoyahcounty@elections.ok.gov.
