Get To Know Gubernatorial Candidate Gentner Drummond

So it has been an objective for a long time.

I had a grandfather that sat me down and said, you know, I really want you to do two main things in your life.

One, serve in the military because none of us have or ranchers and to come back and serve the state.

And so that's been a 48 year promise that is coming to fruition through this gubernatorial race.

My background, I'm a public school product from Osage County, live on a cattle ranch, live on the same cattle ranch today.

Wendy and I have raised our six children.

They're all married.

We have seven grandchildren, one on the way.

One of those children is a physician in the Tulsa market.

Awesome.

Sister-in-law is a dermatologist.

So we've got physicians all around us.

After eight years as a fighter pilot, I came back, practiced law, built companies.

We have about 500 employees, about $35 million of annual payroll.

So we're invested in Oklahoma.

And the time came in my life to run for attorney general.

It's been an absolute pleasure to do that.

We've done some impactful things for public safety and the like, and now governor.

And I will tell you, I don't say this because I'm sitting with you.

The five objectives for me as governor, number two and three are right down your lane.

One is education.

We have to start with education.

But health care and mental health, we are better than 48th and 46th.

And as one who lives in rural Oklahoma, I am acutely concerned.

with the policies of our state to protect our hospital systems.
