People Rushed to Change Parties Before Election

Tulsa County Election Board

Tulsa County Election Board

Several thousand people in Tulsa County and across the state switched political parties in advance of next week’s election

It happens during every election cycle, but usually not to this extent. Tulsa County Election Board Secretary Gwen Freeman says much of it has to do with interest in the midterms.                            

Time is up to change party affiliations before the November 6th election. Those who requested mail-in absentee ballots have until Halloween, this Wednesday, to get them postmarked.
