Holmes Backs Whitten For ODP Chairmanship
Outgoing Oklahoma Democratic Party Chairman Ivan Holmes says he is supporting Edmond attorney Reggie Whitten as his replacement.
Holmes, retired journalism professor at Northeastern State University who took over the party at a time when it was $500,000 in debt and served without pay, said he is encouraging Whitten, the current party finance chairman, to run for chairman.
Whitten, Holmes said, has been instrumental in raising money to eliminate the party's debt and in increasing booster memberships from 17 to more than 150. Booster memberships require a $1,000 annual donation.
