Result
Rep. Stacy Jo Adams (R-Duncan) has secured a second term in Oklahoma House District 50 without facing an opponent this year. No challenger filed for the seat in April, so Adams was among 19 House Republicans reelected at filing, and her name did not appear on the Tuesday, June 16 primary ballot or the Tuesday, Nov. 3 general election ballot.
Her first race was far more competitive. Adams won the open seat in 2024 after Republican Marcus McEntire chose not to seek reelection, leading a four-way Republican primary with 43.7% and then beating Andrew Aldridge in an August runoff. Her new term begins Wednesday, Nov. 18.
Candidates and Platforms
Adams owns an insurance agency in Duncan, which she opened in 2021 after years with State Farm and Allstate, and attended Cameron University. She serves as vice chair of the House Insurance Committee.
Adams authored House Bill 3781, signed into law in May, which requires insurers to file proposed property and casualty rate increases with the insurance commissioner before they take effect rather than after. “No longer will carriers be able to raise rates and notify the Insurance Department after the fact,” she said. The law takes effect July 1, 2027. This fall, she co-led an interim study on why homeowners insurance costs keep rising in Oklahoma.
District and Chamber
District 50 covers Jefferson County and part of Stephens County in southwest Oklahoma, including Duncan. Republicans kept a two-thirds supermajority in the Oklahoma House on Nov. 3, but Democrats flipped six Republican-held seats, leaving Republicans one seat short of the three-fourths majority needed to pass tax increases without a statewide vote.
