Bill overview
House Bill 2020 changes the rules surrounding Oklahoma’s initiative and referendum processes and special elections. Specifically, it gives the Governor more authority to call special elections to vote on these measures, allowing them to be placed on the ballot sooner than at a general election. The bill also outlines a process for the State Election Board to transmit ballot titles and measures to the board 70 days before a general election. Finally, the bill sets an effective date for the changes.
