Tuesday's Runoff To Narrow Field For Second District Representative

Oklahoma's Congressional District 2 Candidates are fighting to win your votes for Tuesday's election. On the Democratic side, Rob Wallace is facing off against Wayne Herriman. And for the Republicans, Markwayne Mullin is running against George Faught. 

No matter what views or backgrounds these candidates stand by, they all have the same agenda for Tuesday's election and that's to get as many people to the poll as possible.

A Democrat has held the congressional district two seat since 2004. Now two new Democratic candidates are hoping to continue the legacy.

Over in Muskogee, Rob Wallace is spending the last few days before the election reaching out to the community.

"I'm making a tour of some of the churches in the Muskogee area just to talk with people, make sure they remember that we're suppose to get out and vote this week," said Democratic candidate Rob Wallace.
