Trump-Backed Mike Mazzei Wins Oklahoma Republican Gubernatorial Runoff
Mike Mazzei defeated state Attorney General Gentner Drummond by less than one percentage point in the Tuesday runoff. The victory for the Trump-backed businessman serves as a test of Trump's influence within the state party. Voters chose between Mazzei and Drummond, who faced criticism for his record as Attorney General. The campaign centered on economic disagreements, specifically trade and tariff policy. While Mazzei aligned with the national party platform, Drummond ran as an anti-tariff conservative. This primary runoff was widely viewed as a measure of Trump's political power in Oklahoma.
