What You Need to Know Ahead of Election Day in Oklahoma

Drummond and Mazzei lead a crowded GOP governor runoff as voters also decide two constitutional changes, including a voter ID measure.

  • On Tuesday, August 25, 2026, Oklahoma voters head to the polls for primary runoff contests including governor, state superintendent, and other partisan posts, with polls open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
  • Attorney General Gentner Drummond faces GOP-backed Mike Mazzei for the Republican gubernatorial nomination, following President Donald Trump's endorsement of Mazzei to replace term-limited Governor Kevin Stitt.
  • Voters will also weigh in on two state questions: State Question 844 regarding manufacturing tax incentives and State Question 846, which seeks to enshrine voter identification requirements into the state Constitution.
  • Winners of these runoffs advance to the General Election on November 3, where the Republican gubernatorial nominee will face Democrat Cyndi Munson and three independent candidates, while Democrats select their U.S. Senate nominee.
  • Voters must present proof of identity, such as a state or tribal photo ID, at their assigned polling place, while the Oklahoma State Election Board website provides resources for verifying registration status and polling locations.
