City council seats in Bixby, Jenks, Broken Arrow, Okmulgee, Beggs, Glenpool and Skiatook were up for grabs. Only a handful of the incumbents ran for reelection.
The Claremore mayoral race caught a lot of attention. Current Mayor Bill Flanagan fought to keep his seat over a challenge from 19-year-old candidate Kurt Levan. According to election board records, Flanagan survived with a 129-vote victory.

"We look for the interest of the city, not necessarily the interest of the individual and that's what we have working now and it's working," Flanagan said.
