Incumbent Superintendent of Public Instruction Joy Hofmeister is set to announce a gubernatorial run against Kevin Stitt as a Democrat in 2022. Her party switch means she will be the first Democratic statewide elected official representing Oklahoma since 2011. She has no chance of winning and ultimately her switching parties will be nothing but a historical footnote but still, we officially have more Democrats representing us statewide than Texas now!

Any ideas why she’s done this? (Switched parties) was she facing a primary defeat?
