BLAINE COUNTY — Mandatory redistricting efforts have caused some precinct boundaries to change. As a result, some voters will be assigned to new polling places, Brenda Rice, Blaine County Election Board Secretary announced today.
Precinct boundary lines must be evaluated every ten years following the redistricting of congressional, legislative, and county commissioner districts. Redistricting occurs following the federal census to ensure that the population in the various districts is equal.
Rice said new Voter Identification cards, along with polling place information, will be mailed to all voters affected by the new precinct lines. Voters can also use the OK Voter Portal oklahoma.gov/elections/ovp to find their polling place information. Polling place changes will become effective immediately.
All precinct numbers and polling place locations in the county since the adoption of the new precinct boundary lines are listed below:
Precinct #10, First Church of The Nazarene, 1412 E Russworm Drive, Watonga, OK 73772
Precinct #11, Watonga City Hall, 410 West Main Street, Watonga, OK 73772
