§ 26 O.S. § 26-1-108Formation of new political parties

A group of persons may form a recognized political party at any
time except during the period between March 1 and November 15 of any
even-numbered year if the following procedure is observed:
1. Notice of intent to form a recognized political party must
be filed in writing with the Secretary of the State Election Board
at any time except during the period between March 1 and November 15
of any even-numbered year;
2. After such notice is filed, petitions seeking recognition of
a political party, in a form to be prescribed by the Secretary of
the State Election Board, shall be filed with such Secretary,
bearing the signatures of registered voters equal to at least three
percent (3%) of the total votes cast in the last General Election
for Governor. Each page of such petitions must contain the names of
registered voters from a single county. Petitions may be circulated
a maximum of one (1) year after notice is filed, provided that
petitions shall be filed with the Secretary no later than March 1 of
an even-numbered year. Such petitions shall not be circulated
between March 1 and November 15 of any even-numbered year; and
3. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of such petitions, the
State Election Board shall determine the sufficiency of such
petitions. If such Board determines there are a sufficient number
of valid signatures of registered voters, the party becomes
recognized under the laws of the State of Oklahoma with all rights
and obligations accruing thereto.
