Primary voter turnout down, state election results show

OKLAHOMA CITY — Turnout in Tuesday’s primary election was down after just over 26% of voters cast ballots, state records show.

In all, slightly fewer than 630,100 Oklahoma voters cast ballots for State Question 832, the only statewide measure in Tuesday’s election open to all registered voters, election records show.

That’s compared to just over 892,750 people who weighed in on the 2018 nonpartisan state question that legalized medical marijuana. That primary election saw a 43.6% voter turnout. At the time, there were just over 373,350 fewer registered voters.

That contest is also most comparable to Tuesday’s in that it also marked the last gubernatorial contest where there wasn’t an incumbent, said Misha Mohr, a spokesperson for the State Election Board.
