Oklahoma Democratic Party Announces New Chair

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK - This morning, Vice Chair Erin Brewer assumed the role of Chair of the Oklahoma Democratic Party. Chair Brewer is hitting the ground running, continuing to bring to the table her strong track record of relentless organizing, policy expertise, and ability to mobilize both resources and voters.

“Over the last six months, Oklahoma Democrats have knocked thousands of doors, cheered as 100 candidates have stepped up to run for office, rebuilt our county party operations, earned the trust of donors large and small, and elevated our visibility and brand statewide,” said Chair Erin Brewer. “We are ready to maintain and expand this momentum into 2026. I am beyond grateful to the dedication of our staff, volunteers, and supporters.”

The Oklahoma Democratic Party’s Executive Committee is exploring candidates for the role of Vice Chair, and will present a nominee to the next State Central Committee meeting in January, followed by a statement from the Oklahoma Democratic Party.

We are confident that with the ongoing partnership of our elected officials, staff, local Democratic organizations, and State Central Committee, we will continue to make progress toward our goals of flipping seats in 2026. It is as important as ever that we remain singularly focused on our mission to engage, connect, and organize in order to elect more Democrats across Oklahoma. 

Representative John Waldron announced his resignation from his position as Chair. We are beyond grateful for his service to our state and party, particularly his commitment to building a strong slate of candidates for 2026.
