Early, in-person voting begins on Thursday for the June 16 election that includes an effort to raise the minimum wage, party primary decisions and one judicial race in Tulsa County. 

Early voting will be held from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Thursday and Friday and from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. Bring a government-issued photo identification (U.S., state or tribal) or a voter ID card issued by the election board. 

To vote early, go to the Tulsa County Election Board, 12000 E. Skelly Drive, near 11th Street and Garnett Road, or the Tulsa Tech Center at 4000 W. Florence St. in Broken Arrow. Those using the Broken Arrow location are asked to enter through the east entrance off Olive Avenue. 

All voters are eligible to vote early — no reasoning required.

All voters will have a say on State Question 832. The ballot measure came from a citizen petition that would raise the state’s minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $15 an hour by 2029. It would be adjusted based on the Consumer Price Index annually starting in 2030. 

Political party members will choose among their candidates in primaries among statewide and legislative offices. If there are more than three candidates in a primary and none receives more than 50%, a runoff will be held Aug. 25. Primaries are closed, meaning you must be a registered party member to cast a vote. Independents are not eligible to vote in this year’s primaries. 

In Tulsa County, the only judicial race on the ballot is for Office 4, which covers the northern part of the county. Candidates are former prosecutors Dustin Allen and Phillip Peak and special judge Loretta Radford.

If you miss early voting, don’t fret — you still have Election Day on June 16. Find your polling place in Tulsa County through the OK Voter Portal or the eletion board’s list.
