On April 5, the Oklahoma House Elections Committee will hear SB 145. This bill makes it easier for independent presidential candidate, and the presidential nominees of unqualified parties, to get on the ballot. It has already passed the State Senate.

The committee won’t hear the other Oklahoma ballot access bill, SB 350, on April 5. That is the bill to make it easier for a party to remain on the ballot. It had also passed the Senate, but later than SB 145, so perhaps it will have a hearing in the House Committee on April 12.
