1930 United States Senate election in Oklahoma
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1930 United States Senate election in Oklahoma took place on November 4, 1930. Incumbent Republican Senator William B. Pine ran for re-election to a second term. In the Democratic primary, former U.S. Senator Thomas Gore emerged victorious in a crowded Democratic primary that included three former governors and one of the first female candidates for statewide office. Gore won a slim plurality in the initial election, and defeated C. J. Wrightsman, an oilman from Tulsa, in the runoff by a wide margin. In the general election, aided by the national Democratic landslide, Gore narrowly defeated Pine, returning to the Senate for one final term.
