It says OK uses lethal injection primarily but it does have secondary methods.
The other methods according to this wiki are as follows.

“However if lethal injection is to ever be outlawed the state has two secondary options outlined in its state constitution. The first being Electrocution by electric chair which was used before the national moratorium began in 1967, with shooting by firing squad as the second option should both lethal injection and electrocution be outlawed.”
It hasn't replaced "They have 'Live Free or Die' as the State Motto" as my number one reason for liking New Hampshire. It's not even the number two reason (a redhead from Dartmouth I used to date) - but the 'hanging as a backup' idea is a clear number three.
I like that.
I think you are a bit optimistic with the time though. 30 to 60 seconds? I can hold my breath for 90+ seconds ...or at least I could when I was in my 20s.
WTF never heard of a .45acp? Buck a round at most. Jesus.
Didn’t you hear? The DHS is buying up all the ammo...lol
LOL! Guess my initial reaction wasn't that farfetched afterall!
Wouldn’t some “h” from the streets of Oklahoma City do the trick?
I’ve got some lead I’d be willing to donate
I hate to sound cold hearted, but it wouldn’t bother me in the least if they beat them to death with sledgehammers
I’m not ashamed for liking it. You shouldn’t be either. Talking about a bad trip lol
Use one of those trickle chargers for lawnmower batteries. String it out till they starve lol
I’ll bring the beer
"Let's do it."
Last words of Gary Gilmore, January 17, 1977.
A 1911A1 solution is cheap an effective.
He should have said, “Fire at will!”
.45ACP is a bit expensive these days.
Could just use a .22LR, shooting them in the eye.(2 or 3 times)
“...a shortage of another anesthetic...”
anesthetic?
How about a wooden mallet whack on the head? That ought to keep him unconscious until the rest of the “cocktail” kicks in.
Go have lunch.
