Ally Seifried defeated far-right conspiracy theorist Jarrin Jackson in a runoff election to determine the GOP candidate for Oklahoma’s 2nd District State Senate seat. Seifried will now face Democrat Jennifer Esau in the November general election.

Seifried won over Jackson by over eight percentage points, with the former statehouse staffer bringing in 5,191 votes to Jackson’s 4,442. Both candidates advanced to a runoff after neither had enough votes to determine a winner in Oklahoma’s primary election on June 28.

Arizona GOP gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake recently came under fire for endorsing Jackson, who is known for openly promoting hatred toward Jewish people and homosexuals on his social media accounts. Jackson is also a believer in many antisemitic, homophobic and election-denying conspiracy theories, and his campaign website lists “preventing Oklahoma from further communist infiltration” as one of the main reasons he is running for office.
