SCOTT WALTON

Sheriff
Rogers County

There’s a new sheriff in town, and his name is Scott Walton.

“Man, I feel great,” Walton said Tuesday night after receiving word of his 20,422 to 17,641- vote victory over Republican candidate Cole Butler.

Walton and Rogers County Democrats held a watch party and celebraton at the Will Rogers Round-Up Club.

“I’m so thankful for the support of my friends and family members, many of who are here this evening,” Walton said. “I’m glad the voters of Rogers County chose me to represent them as their sheriff, in which capacity, I’ll do everything in my power to give them the safety and quality of life they expect and deserve.”

Walton kept his enthusiasm largely in check throughout the evening, even as precinct victories were tallied on the chart tracking votes he and Butler received.

But even with the loss of some precincts — particularly those in Owasso, where Butler won in all three precincts — near the evening’s end, Walton’s new status as sheriff-elect became evident.

“Scott will be outstanding for our county. I know he’ll do a great job,” said Myrtle Prather, wife of outgoing sheriff Jerry Prather, who supported Walton.
