Oklahoma gubernatorial election, 2002 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Oklahoma gubernatorial election, 2002
The Oklahoma gubernatorial election of 2002 was held on November 5, 2002, and was a race for the Governor of Oklahoma. Democrat Brad Henry won the election with 43 percent of the vote, beating Republican Steve Largent and conservative independent Gary Richardson. Henry's narrow win has been attributed to Richardson and Largent's split of the conservative vote〔Averill, David, ("Eyeing another campaign: Richardson had impact on 2002 governor's race" ), ''Tulsa World'', March 22, 2009.〕 and the inclusion of a cockfighting ban on the ballot, an issue which brought cockfighting supporters from Southeastern Oklahoma, a region that largely supported Henry, out to vote.〔〔("Henry upsets Steve Largent in governor's race" ), AP at ''USA Today'', November 5, 2002.〕〔John M. Broder, ("The 2002 Elections: Governors; Bright Spots, Amid Dim Ones, for Democrats" ), ''New York Times'', November 7, 2009.〕 ==Background== Though Democrats had dominated state politics for most of Oklahoma's history, the Oklahoma Republican Party had made historic gains, including five of the state's six Congressional seats.〔Gaddie, Ronald Keith, "(Oklahoma Republican Party )", ''(Encyclopedia of Oklahoma History and Culture )'' (accessed May 31, 2010).〕
