Voter Registration Increases By 44,000-Plus
Voter registration in Oklahoma has increased, a possible reflection of interest in the presidential campaign, a state official says.
More than 44,000 new voters have been added statewide since the end of 2007, said Election Board Assistant Secretary Fran Roach.
At the end of 2007, there were 2,013,942 registered voters in Oklahoma, records show. By April 1, the number was 2,058,091.
"These are pretty high numbers," said Roach, who believes registration numbers are rising because of the presidential campaign. "There's so much interest in the races," she said.
