Bice defeats Horn, wins back Oklahoma’s lone Democratic seat
Associated PressOKLAHOMA CITY — Republican state Sen. Stephanie Bice defeated U.S. Rep. Kendra Horn on Tuesday and won back the only Democratic-held seat in Oklahoma’s congressional delegation. “I am thrilled that once again Oklahoma, on the federal level, is 100% red.” Horn, 44, narrowly won the Oklahoma City-area House seat in 2018 in a district that President Donald Trump had won two years earlier by nearly 14 points. “I voted for Stephanie Bice because she aligns more with my political philosophy,” said Matt Mullins, 48, a state employee from Edmond who also voted for President Donald Trump. “Plus, Kendra Horn voted to impeach the president.” While Bice acknowledged the demographics of the district may be getting younger and more progressive, she noted that it still favors the GOP.
