(a) The County Election Board is a three-member Board. The Secretary of the County Election Board is a member of the Board. Two members constitute a quorum of the Board, and a quorum is required to convene a meeting and conduct business. .

(b) At any time two Board members are present in the County Election Board office outside a called meeting, they risk violation of the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act if any County Election Board business is discussed. In order to reduce the risk of violating the Open Meeting Act, the following rules shall be observed by all County Election Board members and alternate members.

(1) A member or alternate member of the County Election Board shall not serve on an in-person Absentee Voting Board during early voting if the in-person absentee voting site is located in or near the County Election Board office.

(2) A County Election Board member or alternate member may serve on a nursing home Absentee Voting Board, but two members may not serve together on the same nursing home Absentee Voting Board. The County Election Board Secretary must exercise caution when communicating instructions to nursing home Absentee Voting Board members when they receive or return supplies and ballots.

(3) A member or alternate member of the County Election Board may serve on an in-person Absentee Voting Board assigned to a secondary in-person absentee voting site. See 230:30-7-6.2.
