OK SB943

School board candidates must file declarations of candidacy in the county where the district's supervision is located, rather than having the option to file in the county where the candidate resides for multi-county districts

State Department of Education must notify the State Election Board when school district boundaries differ from county boundaries, and the State Election Board must then notify affected county election boards

Board of education reapportionment following the federal decennial census applies to the county in which the school district is located, with board districts required to follow visible physical boundaries and maintain no more than 10% population variance

Clarifies statutory language by updating internal references from "this act" to "this title" throughout provisions governing school board elections

Effective date is November 1, 2016, contingent on passage of a related Senate bill from the same legislative session
