OKLAHOMA CITY — Republican Rep. Frank Lucas won reelection to a U.S. House seat representing Oklahoma on Tuesday. The longest-serving member of Oklahoma's congressional delegation, Lucas secured reelection in June when he received more than 73% of the vote in a three-way Republican primary, since no Democrat or independent ran for the seat. First elected in a special election in 1994, the rancher from Cheyenne, Oklahoma, currently chairs the House Science, Space and Technology Committee and is the longest-serving member of the House Agriculture Committee.
