Voter Registration Deadline

Sallisaw residents who want to vote for City Police Chief in the April1 special election must register to vote by March 7.

The special election was called after the two candidates for Sallisaw Police Chief ended up in a tie vote in the regular election February 11.  Terry Franklin and Sandy Girdner both received eight hun- dred thirty-seven votes, resulting in the special election.

Cindy Osborn, Sequoyah County Election Board secretary, said persons must be U. S. citizens, resi- dents of Oklahoma and Sallisaw and at least eighteen years old to register for the Sallisaw vote.

She said the applications are available at the election board office at 110 E. Creek in Sallisaw and at most post offices, tag agents and public libraries in the county.
