OKLAHOMA CITY – Two Republicans will meet in an April 1 primary runoff for Senate District 8 following Tuesday's special election.
Bryan Logan of Paden received 40.71% of the vote in a field of six. David Nelson of Morris received 31.61%.
The Republican nominee will face Democrat Nathan Brewer and independent Steve Sandford in a May 13 special general election to represent Okmulgee, Okfuskee and McIntosh counties and portions of Creek and Muskogee counties. Both are from Henryetta.
The post became vacant when former Sen. Roger Thompson, R-Okemah, resigned effective Nov. 1.
