Schwartz To Announce Run For No. 2 Post

State Rep. Colby Schwartz of Yukon will announce Friday he seeks the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor next year.
The announcement confirms speculation for some time that Schwartz would seek higher office.
Schwartz obtained his bachelor's degree in political science from Oklahoma City University in 1995. He's a consultant and was legislative and constituent liaison for Lt. Governor Mary Fallin. He served for six years as chairman of the Canadian County Republican Party and is now a member of the Oklahoma Republican Party's budget committee.
Schwartz is not term-limited in the House; he could serve until 2018.
