ABOUT THIS STATE

Not many states get an iconic Broadway song that teaches everyone how to spell its name, but you know what, Oklahoma? You deserve it. After all, the Center of the Universe is in Oklahoma. Ok fine, it's just a spot with a weird acoustic anomaly, but still, pretty cool. Oklahoma is holding its statewide primary and general elections on June 28 and November 8, respectively. There will also be a primary runoff and special election in August and various local elections elections in February, April, and May. Here's what you need to know about voting this year in the Sooner state. (Source: Ballot Ready)
