In the event that an absentee ballot mailed to a voter

identified by Section 14-142 of this title or otherwise transmitted

to a voter as provided by law cannot be received by the voter, voted

and returned to the secretary of the county election board in the

county of the residence of the voter in time to be counted, the

secretary shall be authorized to transmit a ballot for federal

offices by facsimile device as defined in Section 1862 of Title 21

of the Oklahoma Statutes, provided that the voter has made a timely

application for an absentee ballot. The voter may transmit by

facsimile device the voted ballot only to the location designated by

the Secretary of the State Election Board. Regular absentee ballots

also shall be mailed to the voter, and if the regular ballots are

returned by the voter and received by the secretary of the county

election board in time to be counted, the ballot transmitted by

facsimile device shall not be counted. The Secretary of the State

Election Board shall promulgate rules setting forth procedures and

prescribe appropriate forms to transmit and to receive absentee

ballots pursuant to this section.
