House lawmaker representing Oklahoma City resigns, setting up special election

OKLAHOMA CITY — A lawmaker from Oklahoma City had his last day in the House Monday after being elected Oklahoma County commissioner.

Elected April 1, Democrat Rep. Jason Lowe was expected to be sworn in as county commissioner Monday.

A special primary election to fill the now-vacant legislative seat, which covers parts of northeast Oklahoma City and surrounding areas, is June 10. If needed, a special runoff would be Aug. 12 and a special general election on Sept. 9, said Misha Mohr with the State Election Board.

Lowe thanked his colleagues, legislative staff and constituents as he addressed the House chamber for the last time.
