INDN’s List Candidate John Sparks Wins Runoff
Completing OK Sweep
John Sparks, a member of the Cherokee Nation, won his bid yesterday for the Democratic nomination in the state’s 16th Senate District, moving all four INDN candidates of Oklahoma into the victory column. Scott BigHorse and Chuck Hoskin will join John Sparks in vying for seats in the Oklahoma House and Senate. Al McAffrey, a member of the Choctaw Nation, is uncontested in the general election and will be seated as District 88’s representative.
“This is yet another big day in a huge year for INDN’s List,” remarked President Kalyn Free. “Our success is in our candidates and their vision. They are proving that voters recognize and affirm the bold, positive vision that Indian candidates and the Democratic Party have put forward in states across the nation.”
Sparks, a married father of two, is the founder of a small business that widens healthcare access to children, the elderly, and those living with mental illness. He works tirelessly to serve the residents of Cleveland County , and his victory Tuesday moves Sparks a step closer to gaining a voice for Oklahomans across the state, from the panhandle to Green Country.
The voters of his district have spoken, but Sparks ’ vision and campaign must continue to be heard as he works his way to the general election.
