Nearly 51,000 Oklahomans cast early votes or sent in absentee ballots for the presidential primaries.
In Tulsa County, more than 8,500 people voted early. That includes 4,937 people who came out for early, in-person voting Thursday through Saturday at the election board offices or Hardesty Library.
"We wound up with numbers just barely below what we did in 2016 during that presidential primary, and if you consider it, we had an open seat at that point. So, the numbers are very, very good," said Tulsa County Election Board Secretary Gwen Freeman.
As of Monday afternoon, the election board had received 3,619 absentee ballots. Freeman expects those to continue coming in for the next few days.
Any voting today must be done at your designated polling place. There’s a county question on liquor sales in addition to Democratic and Republican primaries.
"There was some confusion early on in early voting whether Republicans were actually involved in the primary, and yes, they are. There are six candidates on the Republican primary, including Donald Trump," Freeman said.
You can check your polling place at an online portal.
