The Republican primary race for Oklahoma governor is set to go to a runoff.
Attorney General Gentner Drummond and Mike Mazzei will compete in the next stage of the election. Mazzei has garnered the support of former President Donald Trump.
This runoff is part of the process to determine who will succeed term-limited Governor Kevin Stitt (R). Sparse polling conducted prior to the primary suggested that Drummond might have held an advantage within the crowded field of candidates.
According to Decision Desk HQ, these results confirm the need for a runoff.
