Career

Murphy defeated Democrat Jim Roth, who was appointed in 2007 by Democratic Governor of Oklahoma Brad Henry, in a 2008 special election to fill the seat vacated by Republican Denise Bode. Murphy ran for a full term in 2010 and handily won the primary election. As no Democrat or independent candidate filed, Murphy thus retained her seat. Murphy was elected chairman by her fellow commissioners effective February 1, 2017. On July 27, 2017, Murphy announced that she would run for lieutenant governor in the 2018 election.
