A. The Secretary of the State Election Board shall devise a

voter identification card which shall be issued to every person who

becomes a registered voter in Oklahoma. The voter identification

card shall contain such information as is necessary to determine a

registered voter’s eligibility.

B. When a person registers to vote or changes his or her

registration in any manner to require a new voter identification

card, or upon the eighteenth birthday of a person who has submitted

a voter registration application pursuant to the provisions of

subsection B of Section 4-103 of this title, the county election

board secretary in the county of the voter’s residence shall

transmit the new voter identification card as acknowledgment of the

transaction which may be the notice required in Section 4-103.1 of

this title. New voter identification cards provided for in this

subsection shall be mailed to the physical address of the voter if

such address is valid to receive mail delivery; provided, however,

the voter identification card shall be transmitted to the mailing

address provided by the voter on his or her voter registration

application if the mailing type or physical address meets one of the

following exceptions:

1. The voter’s physical address of residence is not a valid

address to receive mail delivery. A valid address is one that

follows the correct standards and formatting of the United States

Postal Service. A valid address shall have a street name, street

number, city, state, and ZIP code. An invalid address is one that

has a directional address or unknown structure under standards of

the United States Postal Service or is otherwise not eligible to

receive mail delivery from the United States Postal Service;

2. The voter cannot receive mail delivery at a physical address

due to “No Mail Receptacle” according to the United States Postal

Service; or

3. The mailing of the voter identification card is the result

of an action initiated by the election board which may include

notification to the voter of changes to a polling place, district

lines, or precincts listed on the voter registration card.

C. 1. If a voter registration card is mailed to the voter’s

physical address and is returned to the election board by the postal

service due to “No Mail Receptacle”, the voter registration card may

be resent to the mailing address provided on the voter registration

application. A person whose voter identification card was returned

pursuant to this subsection may appear in person to request and be

provided the returned voter registration card at the county election

board by presenting proof of identity as described in subsection A

of Section 7-114 of this title.

2. Upon determination that a voter’s physical address of

residence cannot receive mail as described in paragraph 1 or 2 of

subsection B of this section, the secretary of the county election

board may make a notation of such information in the election
