Oklahoma residents can register to vote online through the Oklahoma Voter Portal at https://Oklahoma.gov/elections/ovp, or by completing a paper voter registration form available from the County Election Board, post offices, tag agencies, and public assistance offices. Registration deadlines fall 25 days before any election, and applicants must be U.S. Citizens, Oklahoma residents, and at least 18 years old by the date of the next election. Valid identification is required both when registering and when voting in person. As an unincorporated community, Camargo does not hold municipal elections for mayor or city council, so residents participate only in county, state, and federal elections. Dewey County holds elections for county offices including County Commissioner (three districts, staggered four-year terms), Sheriff, County Clerk, Court Clerk, Assessor, Treasurer, and others, typically during even-numbered years. Local voters participate in Oklahoma State Legislature elections for their respective State Senate and State House districts; the county is part of State Senate District 26 and State House District 58 as of recent redistricting. Oklahoma voters can find their assigned polling place by using the online polling place lookup tool at https://okvoterportal.okelections.us or by contacting the Dewey County Election Board at (580) 328-5521. Polling places in rural Dewey County are often school buildings or community centers, with Camargo-area voters typically assigned to a polling location in Taloga, Seiling, or another nearby community depending on precinct boundaries.

Oklahoma offers absentee voting for registered voters who will be absent from the county on election day, are physically incapacitated, are confined to a nursing home, work on election day during polling hours and cannot otherwise vote, or are incarcerated but retain voting rights. Absentee ballot applications must be submitted to the County Election Board; applications can be downloaded at https://www.ok.gov/elections/Voter_Info/Absentee_Voting/ or requested by phone at (580) 328-5521. Absentee ballot applications must be received by the County Election Board no later than 5:00 PM on the Wednesday preceding the election (8 days before). Completed absentee ballots must be received by 7:00 PM on Election Day or postmarked by the day before the election and received within three days. Oklahoma does not have universal vote-by-mail or no-excuse absentee voting, so voters must qualify under one of the statutory reasons. Early in-person voting is available at the County Election Board office during a designated period (typically the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday immediately preceding the election) for voters who prefer to vote before Election Day without requesting an absentee ballot.
