Where this section sits in the code
  1. OK Code
  2. Title 14

A. The Legislature declares that careful and diligent efforts

have been put forth in the preparation of the State House of

Representatives districts described in this act; provided, however,

if by some scrivener's error any census block has been inadvertently

and unintentionally placed as to be noncontiguous with the remainder

of the district to which it has been assigned, then it shall be the

duty of the Legislature in 2022 to correct such scrivener's error to

preserve the contiguity in such district.

B. Any unassigned land within a district not specifically

provided for in this act shall be construed to be a part of the

district in which it is located.

C. If the State House of Representatives Redistricting Act of

2021 or the State Senate Redistricting Act of 2021 requires any

county election board to create precincts pursuant to Section 3-116

of Title 26 of the Oklahoma Statutes where no persons reside, it

shall be the duty of the Speaker of the House of Representatives and

the President Pro Tempore of the Senate to adjust House or Senate

district lines to prevent the creation of precincts where no persons

reside. Any adjustment shall not affect the total population of any

House or Senate district.
