Rinehart, Dickinson Signs Go Up

In what promises to be a spirited primary for the Oklahoma County Commission seat now held by Brent Rinehart, large signs for Republican Rinehart are now beginning to pop up in the district.

Rinehart, who faces trial on felony counts related to a previous campaign, has not announced officially he's seeking reelection, but his signs make it obvious he is.

He faces a challenge in the Republican primary by J. D. Johnston, the former mayor of Bethany, and Brian Maughan, former consultant to AT&T.

Signs also are appearing for Democrat Jim Dickinson of Choctaw, who previously ran against Rinehart.

Maughan kicks off his campaign tonight with a fundraiser at the home of GOP 1990 nominee for governor Bill Price.
