Information received by the State Election Board from the
					 State Health Department, from the federal court system, the Social Security
					 Administration, from other states, and from other counties in Oklahoma is
					 entered manually or imported electronically into MESA. Information received
					 from the County Court Clerk concerning felony convictions and judgments of
					 incapacitation are entered in MESA by County Election Board personnel in each
					 county. MESA processes all such information and when a match is made to an
					 existing registered voter, the information is delivered to the appropriate
					 County Election Board through the Potential Deletions Processing window. The
					 Secretary of the County Election Board shall cause a report, called the
					 Potential Deletions Report, to be printed from the Potential Deletions
					 Processing window not less than once each month. This report lists persons who
					 have died, persons who have been convicted of felonies in other counties in
					 Oklahoma or in a federal court, and persons who have registered again in
					 another state or in another county in Oklahoma. County Election Board personnel
					 shall examine each potential deletion match for validity. If it is determined
					 that the match is correct and valid, the registration of the matched voter in
					 the county shall be deleted. The voter registrations of persons listed on the
					 Potential Deletion Report shall be cancelled only upon positive identification
					 of the voter's registration record. If there is any doubt that the match is not
					 a correct and valid match, the registration of the matched voter in the county
					 shall be retained.
