(Oklahoma City) – The State Election Board has released its official pre-election voter registration statistics and the report shows that Oklahoma has reached a milestone – surpassing 2.4 million voters as of November 1, 2024. This year’s report shows a net increase of more than 141,023 registered voters since January 15 and a net increase of nearly 29,056 since September 30. The State Election Board’s official pre-election voter registration statistics show the total number of registered voters is the largest before a Presidential Election since Oklahoma began tracking pre-election voter registration statistics in 2000.

Oklahoma’s voter registration statistics show that registered Republicans make up 52.33% of Oklahoma’s registered voters, while Democrats make up 26.98% of the state’s registration. Independents represent the third largest group of registered voters in the state, making up 19.72% of voter registration totals. Libertarians consist of less than one-percent of the state’s registration at 0.95%, but numbers continue to steadily increase each year.

“I am encouraged by the latest numbers and the growth in registered voters we have seen over the past several years. Hopefully, they point to better overall turnout for the General Election,” said Paul Ziriax, Secretary of the State Election Board.
