*** PRESS RELEASE ***
CQ Roll Call: Rep. George Faught the “Likely Nominee”
(Muskogee, OK) – State Representative George Faught (R-Muskogee), the first Republican to announce his candidacy for the 2nd Congressional District, has attracted national attention as a prominent political news source named him the “likely nominee”. A recent Congressional Quarterly Roll Call ‘Daily Briefing’ speculated that the seat could result in a special election if Congressman Boren resigns to accept the presidency of Northeastern State University. The report stated, “The special election would almost certainly be a hotly contested turnover target for the GOP, with State Rep. George Faught the likely nominee.”
“This is just more evidence of the strong grassroots organization and support that we have throughout the 2nd District’s twenty-six counties”, Faught said, responding to the report. “I was honored to work across the 2nd District campaigning for conservatives in the 2010 elections, and am humbled that the folks I volunteered with are stepping up to help in our campaign. The people of this district want to send someone to Washington who has proven he represents their values, and believes in this district.”
George Faught was the first Republican in state history elected to represent Oklahoma House District 14. Faught and his wife, Becky, have been married for nearly 29 years. They live in Muskogee and have three grown children, Tyler, Jamison and Savannah. They operate a family-owned carpet cleaning business that has been serving communities in eastern Oklahoma for the past 24 years.
