Process to become a candidate
See statutes: Title 26, Chapter 5 of the Oklahoma Code
Filing
Each candidate must file a declaration of candidacy with the Oklahoma State Election Board to place his or her name on the ballot. The declaration must be filed during the candidate filing period, which begins on the first Wednesday in April and ends on the following Friday. The declaration of candidacy must be signed and notarized and include the following:[2][3][4]
- the name of the candidate
- the candidate's address
- the office the candidate seeks
- the candidate's date of birth
- the candidate's political party affiliation
- the precinct and county where the candidate is a registered voter
- a sworn oath affirming that the candidate is qualified to become a candidate for the office being sought and to hold that office if elected
A partisan candidate must be a registered voter of the political party with which he or she wishes to run for at least six months immediately preceding the first day of the candidate filing period. An independent candidate must be registered as an independent voter for at least six months before filing as a candidate. A candidate of a new political party that has not been officially recognized for six months must be registered with that party within 15 days following its recognition.[5]
A candidate may file for only one office per election. There is no process for candidates to run as write-ins as write-in voting is not permitted in Oklahoma.[6]
Fees
Each candidate must pay a filing fee to the Oklahoma State Election Board or else file a petition signed by 4 percent of registered voters who will be eligible to vote for the candidate in the election (this figure is determined by using the latest January 15 voter registration report).[7]
Filing fees vary according to the office being sought by the candidate and are described in the table below.[7]
| Filing fees | |
|---|---|
| Office sought | Filing fee |
| Governor of Oklahoma | $2,000 |
| United States Senator | $2,000 |
| United States Representative Lieutenant Governor Corporation Commission Attorney General State Auditor and Inspector Superintendent of Public Instruction Treasurer Commissioner of Insurance Commissioner of Labor |
$1,000 |
| State Senator | $750 |
| State Representative District Judge or Associate District Judge District Attorney |
$500 |
| County Offices | $300 |
Challenges
Any candidate may challenge another candidate’s candidacy by filing a written petition of contest with the Oklahoma State Election Board. If there is only one candidate running for office, any registered voter who is eligible to vote for that candidate may file a contesting petition. This must be done by 5 p.m. on the second business day after the close of the candidate filing period. The contesting petition must be accompanied by a deposit of $250, which will be returned to the challenger if he or she successfully proves that the candidate does not fulfill all requirements to be a candidate for that office.[8][9][10][11]
Qualifications
Article 5, Section 17 of the Oklahoma Constitution states: Members of the Senate shall be at least twenty-five years of age, and members of the House of Representatives twenty-one years of age at the time of their election. They shall be qualified electors in their respective counties or districts and shall reside in their respective counties or districts during their term of office.

Footnotes
- ↑ Ballotpedia defines a seat as open if the incumbent did not file to run for re-election or filed but withdrew and did not appear on any ballot for his or her seat. If the incumbent withdrew from or did not participate in the primary but later chose to seek re-election to his or her seat as a third party or independent candidate, the seat would not be counted as open. If the incumbent retired or ran for a different seat in the same chamber, his or her original seat would be counted as open unless another incumbent from the same chamber filed to run for that seat, in which case it would not be counted as open due to the presence of an incumbent.
