The campaign for Oklahoma's second highest office tops an undercard of statewide offices in the Nov. 4 general election that also includes a low-key race for commissioner of labor but no contests for other statewide seats in which incumbents were unopposed or the race was decided in a primary election.
Republican Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb is running for a second four-year term as the state's second-in-charge against Democrat Cathy Cummings.
Republican Commissioner of Labor Mark Costello is seeking for a second four-year term in a low-key campaign against Democrat Mike Workman, a former public school band director from Tulsa.
Other offices won't be on the ballot because incumbents ran unopposed or races were settled in primaries. They include auditor and inspector, attorney general, treasurer, insurance commissioner and corporation commissioner.
