Gentner Drummond appears to have a lead of just less than 2% as of the 10pm hour. The few remaining precincts are in the OKC metro area. Unlike last election cycle, Drummond has a slightly larger cushion than the 200+ votes he lost by in 2018. The current AG, John O'Conner, has not run for office previously, and he initially turned down Gov. Stitt's overture when the vacancy emerged. But in his short service in the office, he's championed several causes and cleaned up several legal messes. Several daunting challenges remain in 2023 and beyond. Drummond will face only a token challenge from a 3rd party candidate, in November. |
