Tulsa Native Ty Walker Launches Campaign For Mayor

Ty Walker has officially launched his campaign to become the next mayor of Tulsa.

He says values are important and keeping those values first is key.

"Under no circumstances will we ever forget those values that Tulsa helped bestow upon me. Loving our neighbors as ourselves, treating others with dignity, respecting others property and respecting other people's views. not just my views or anyone else's but everybody's views," said Walker on Tuesday.

Walker said economic development will be his first priority if he gets elected. "We have taxpaying citizens in North Tulsa that deserve just as much as the taxpaying citizens on this side of the bridge. So, I'm here to bring that side up to date with this side," Walker said.

Walker is one of eight candidates who have filed to run for Mayor.
