Where this section sits in the code
  1. OK Code
  2. Title 26

A. In the event an absentee ballot is mutilated, defaced or

damaged in a manner that it cannot be read by the voting device and

thus not counted during the counting process, then two members of

the county election board of different political party affiliations

or two members of an absentee voting board under the supervision of

the county election board shall be authorized to mark a substitute

ballot in identical fashion, insofar as is possible. Once so

marked, the substitute ballot shall be entered for counting into the

voting device. A written record of such action shall be made by the

two county election board members.

B. In the event of an absentee ballot that was delivered

electronically to a voter as described in Section 14-118 of this

title, or an absentee ballot that was received from a voter by

facsimile device as described by Section 14-118.1 of this title, and

the ballot cannot be read by the voting device, then two members of

the county election board of different political party affiliations

or two members of an absentee voting board under the supervision of

the county election board shall be authorized to mark a substitute

ballot in identical fashion, insofar as is possible. Once so

marked, the substitute ballot shall be entered for counting into the

voting device. A written record of such action shall be made by the

two county election board members.

C. In the event there is a disagreement about how a substitute

ballot should be marked for any race, the matter shall be brought

immediately before the full county election board, which shall vote

to decide how to mark the ballot.
