Rep. Brad Boles was sworn into the Oklahoma House of Representatives on Friday, March 16, to represent House District 51. The district includes Grady, McClain and Stephens counties in southwest Oklahoma.
Boles was elected in a special election held after the resignation of former Rep. Scott Biggs, who took a position with the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
“It’s an honor to have been selected by the voters in House District 51 to represent them,” said Boles. “I look forward to working with other legislators to help pass meaningful reforms that support our public schools, public safety, health care, transportation and other services for the citizens of my district and the state overall while balancing the principles of responsible spending and personal freedom.”
Assistant Majority Floor Leader and State Rep. Chris Kannady said, “Brad Boles is a leader in his community politically as a former mayor and from a business sense, running a successful company. There are few people that bring that level of leadership. Not only his district but the entire state will benefit from his continued selfless service.”
Boles is a lifelong resident of Stephens County and a graduate of Marlow High School. He attended Eastern Oklahoma State College, where he played baseball, was named an Academic All-American, and graduated with an Associate’s Degree in Business. He then attended Dallas Baptist University where he played baseball and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business. He earned a dual-MBA Degree in Finance/Business Management graduating with honors and a perfect GPA.
