Oklahoma OK-01 House2018

Bridenstine was sworn in as NASA administrator on April 23, and under Oklahoma law, his Tulsa seat will remain vacant until next January. The all-important August 28 GOP runoff pits former Tulsa County prosecutor Tim Harris, who led the June primary with 28 percent, against businessman Kevin Hern (23 percent). Former intelligence officer Andy Coleman (22 percent) and state Sen. Nathan Dahm (20 percent) failed to make the cut.

Harris was elected county prosecutor four times from 1998 and 2014 and starts out better-known. But Hern, a former state GOP finance chair whose company operates ten McDonald's franchises, has self-funded over $900,000. He's running as the pro-Trump outsider and will have a heavy cash advantage. Harris has criticized the president's tariffs and refuses to join Hern in calling for an end to the Mueller investigation. Hern probably has more runoff upside.
