Oklahoma's recent elections featured several notable outcomes. Tulsa's mayoral race will proceed to a runoff between State Rep. Monroe Nichols and Tulsa County Commissioner Karen Keith, both of whom garnered 33% of the vote, marking a historic race as Nichols is the first person of color to finish first in a Tulsa mayoral race. In Oklahoma's legislative races, several incumbents, including House Budget Chair Kevin Wallace, were unseated by challengers. Additionally, Oklahoma City voters approved raising the hotel tax from 4.5% to 9.25%, which is expected to generate significant revenue for the city. Various school bond proposals and city infrastructure issues were also on the ballot, reflecting widespread engagement in local governance.
