Wright Says He'll Seek No. 2 State Office

Rep. John Wright, Broken Arrow Republican, announced today he'll seek the GOP nomination for lieutenant governor next year.
He's the third announced candidate for the office to be vacated by Lt. Governor Jari Askins, announced candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor; Senator Kenneth Corn, Poteau Democrat, announced earlier. Yukon Republican Rep.

Wright is term-limited in the Legislature and cannot seek reelection.
