2014 Oklahoma Senate - Inhofe vs. Silverstein

Race Analysis

When Jim Inhofe was first up for re-election in 1996, most observers rated his race against James Boren (not to be confused with his cousin, former Sen. David Boren) as at least somewhat competitive. Those days are gone. While Inhofe never wins his elections overwhelmingly -- he’s won 57 percent of the vote in all three re-election efforts -- few expect Matt Silverstein to give him a close race.
