Bobby McCollum for HD88

Hello, my name is Robert McCollum, but the people who know me best call me Bobby. I want you to get to know me so you will know how hard I will work to represent you.

I’ve lived in House District 88 for 40 years. Through droughts and ice storms; oil booms and busts; the Great Recession and pandemic, and my own personal mountaintops and valleys, I know firsthand the struggles Oklahomans face. As such, I’m here to serve you. I will do whatever I can to improve your quality of life and be your voice at the Capitol for the things that matter to you. I humbly ask for your vote.
