Visitors can register to vote and verify their voter registration.

The event will feature food, games and prizes, as well as noted speakers from the campus and city.   

Speakers for this civic engagement event include James Cooper, OKC Councilman Ward 2; JoBeth Hamon, OKC Councilwoman Ward 6; Professor Tamra Banks Johnson, OSU-OKC professor of history; Dr. Dorothy Waver, OSU-OKC professor of sociology; and Professor Lathonya Shivers, OSU-OKC professor of public service.
