Stephanie Bice (R) defeated incumbent Kendra Horn (D) in the general election for Oklahoma's 5th Congressional District on November 3, 2020.
The 5th District was one of 31 U.S. House districts that Donald Trump (R) won in the 2016 presidential election and a Democratic candidate won in the 2018 midterm elections. Horn was first elected in 2018 after defeating incumbent Rep. Steve Russell (R) 51% to 49%. In 2016, Russell defeated Al McAffrey (D) 57% to 37%. Prior to Horn’s 2018 election, a Republican had represented the district since 1975.
Both the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the National Republican Congressional Committee prioritized this race.[1][2] The U.S. Chamber of Commerce endorsed Horn and President Donald Trump (R) endorsed Bice.[3][4]
The outcome of this race affected partisan control of the U.S. House of Representatives in the 117th Congress. All 435 seats in the House were up for election. At the time of the election, Democrats had a 232 to 198 majority over Republicans. The Libertarian Party had one seat. Four seats were vacant. Democrats defended 30 districts Donald Trump (R) won in 2016. Republicans defended five districts Hillary Clinton (D) won in 2016.
Oklahoma's 5th Congressional District is located in the central portion of the state and includes Pottawatomie and Seminole counties and an area of Oklahoma County.[5]
This race was one of 89 congressional races that were decided by 10 percent or less in 2020.

Election procedure changes in 2020
Ballotpedia provided comprehensive coverage of how election dates and procedures changed in 2020. While the majority of changes occurred as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, some changes occurred for other reasons.
Oklahoma modified its absentee/mail-in voting procedures for the November 3, 2020, general election as follows:
- Absentee/mail-in voting: Voters casting absentee ballots could submit copies of their identification in lieu of fulfilling the notarization requirement in the event of a state of emergency occurring within 45 days of an election. Individuals experiencing symptoms indicative of COVID-19, and individuals classified as vulnerable to infection, could cast an absentee ballot under the 'physical incapacitation' eligibility criterion.

District analysis

- See also: FiveThirtyEight's elasticity scores
The 2017 Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district was R+10, meaning that in the previous two presidential elections, this district's results were 10 percentage points more Republican than the national average. This made Oklahoma's 5th Congressional District the 135th most Republican nationally.[9]
FiveThirtyEight's September 2018 elasticity score for states and congressional districts measured "how sensitive it is to changes in the national political environment." This district's elasticity score was 0.90. This means that for every 1 point the national political mood moved toward a party, the district was expected to move 0.90 points toward that party.[10]

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:
- Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
- Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
- Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[11]
- Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.
Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[12][13][14]

Kendra Horn
Horn’s campaign website stated the following:
| “ |
“Education is the most important investment we can make in our future. To create more high-paying jobs in Oklahoma, we must prepare our next generation with the tools they need to join the 21st century workforce.” – Kendra Horn Highlights:
Kendra Horn believes the investments we make in our students, classrooms, and teachers today have the power to create opportunity and strengthen Oklahoma’s economy. She has worked across the aisle to win record investments in Head Start to give our kids a strong start and better prepare them for K-12. Kendra also secured an increase for IDEA to support children with disabilities and Impact AID funding for schools near military bases and Tribal lands. Good schools need quality teachers. Kendra has fought to give public school teachers the tools, training, and resources they need to provide our children with a world-class education. She has cosponsored bipartisan legislation to support professional development programs for teachers and brought Oklahoma’s 2O2O Teacher of the Year as her guest to the State of the Union. Kendra is also a strong advocate for STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and investments in career and technical schools. Kendra fights for Oklahoma’s CareerTech system to provide job and skills training for high-tech and in-demand careers. Too many Oklahomans are struggling under the crushing weight of student loans debt. That’s why Kendra is committed to addressing college affordability with pragmatic solutions. During her first year in Congress, she introduced four bills to lower student loan interest rates, simplify borrowing, and strengthen public service loan forgiveness programs. Kendra believes the answer to the student debt crisis is not to make college free, but a practical bipartisan path forward to reduce cost and make college more accessible for all.
“Health care is a right, not a privilege. As we fight back against a global pandemic, it is more important than ever that Oklahomans have access to quality, affordable health care, including prescription drugs and telemedicine.” – Kendra Horn Highlights:
Kendra believes that health care is a right, not a privilege for the few. She has fought to lower the price of prescription drugs, eliminate lifetime caps imposed by big insurance companies, and protect access to care for people with pre-existing conditions. Last year, Kendra introduced the Capping Out-of-Pocket Costs for Seniors Act, which would cap out-of-pocket prescription drug expenses at $2,OOO for patients who have Medicare Part D. More than 89,OOO seniors in Oklahoma’s 5th Congressional District rely on Medicare Part D for care. Kendra’s bill was included in the Lower Drug Costs Now Act, a bill that took sweeping action to reduce drug prices and would allow Medicare to negotiate directly with pharmaceutical companies to lower costs. This legislation would reduce the costs of treating chronic illnesses like asthma, diabetes, and arthritis by thousands of dollars every year. Kendra supports Medicaid expansion in Oklahoma, a move that will extend health care to 2OO,OOO Oklahomans who do not currently have insurance. For more than a decade, Oklahoma has lost out on a billion dollars annually by not expanding Medicaid. Kendra has fought for legislation in Congress that would increase federal matching funds for Oklahoma as our state expands its Medicaid program. During the pandemic, Kendra fought to pass emergency legislation in Congress to send needed PPE equipment and funding to our nation’s frontline health care workers and hospitals. She helped to pass bills that make testing available and free, invest billions in finding a vaccine for COVID-19, and provide community health centers, local clinics, and rural hospitals with the resources they need to make it through the crisis.
“I know we have more that unites than divides us. In Congress, I strive to be a voice for all Oklahomans. That means standing up to both parties when they’re wrong and reaching across the aisle to create bipartisan solutions.” – Kendra Horn Highlights:
Kendra believes in a government of, by, and for the people. In Congress, she has made it a top priority to connect with all Oklahomans in the Fifth District by hosting a record number of town halls. She was recognized by the Town Hall Project as one of the most accessible first-term members of Congress. During the pandemic, Kendra has hosted even more public events, including weekly town halls online to answer questions and update constituents. Kendra is working to ensure that any stimulus legislation is timely, targeted, and transparent, what she calls the three T’s of good government. She voted to send PPE to health care workers, provide relief for small businesses, and help workers who lost their jobs. But when her party proposed the most expensive stimulus bill in American history that wasn’t timely, targeted and transparent, Kendra stood up to leadership and voted no. Kendra believes that if Members of Congress want to get paid, they should do their jobs by showing up and passing a budget. That’s why she is a leader on the No Budget No Pay Act, a bill that would prevent House and Senate members from receiving their salary if they miss annual deadlines for budget and appropriations bills. Kendra also called out congressional leadership during the pandemic for not bringing Members of Congress back to the Capitol sooner to vote on relief measures. Kendra also voted to pass historic legislation to get dark money out of politics. The anti-corruption, pro-democracy bill which passed in the House would require the disclosure of dark-money spending in elections, end partisan gerrymandering, and strengthen ethics requirements, including a prohibition on Members of Congress using taxpayer money to settle sexual harassment claims.
“We don’t have to choose between policies that are good for our pocketbooks and policies that are good for our people.” – Kendra Horn Highlights:
Our nation is facing an unprecedented health and economic crisis. In Congress, Kendra is fighting to help workers, small businesses and families make ends meet by bringing lawmakers from both parties together to enact practical solutions. Kendra worked with both parties and President Trump to pass the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), an updated trade deal expected to create 175,OOO American jobs. The USMCA takes important steps forward to protect workers and expand free and fair trade with our state’s two largest trading partners. Each year, Mexico and Canada purchase $2.3 billion in Oklahoma exports. When the pandemic struck, Kendra fought to expand unemployment benefits, including increased assistance and benefits for self-employed workers and gig workers who usually don’t qualify. When Oklahomans who’d lost their job through no fault of their own experienced long delays receiving assistance, Kendra pressured state officials to speed up the process and eliminate roadblocks for workers. Small businesses are the backbone of Oklahoma’s economy, employing over half of our state’s workforce. During the pandemic, Kendra fought to help them keep their lights on and their workers employed, leading an effort to provide immediate grants and zero-interest disaster loans. After Congress passed the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) to provide relief to small businesses and funds ran out, Kendra led the charge to restore the program, urging both parties to stop playing political games with the PPP. During her first term, Kendra helped introduce and pass 16 bills, signed into law by the president. Kendra’s enacted legislation includes the Great American Outdoors Act, the Tenants Bill of Rights for Military Families, the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act, and the Student Veteran Coronavirus Response Act.
“We owe a debt to the men and women in uniform who faithfully serve our country. We must repay our veterans, service members, and military families not only with our words, but with our actions.” – Kendra Horn Highlights:
Our service members, veterans, and military families have put everything on the line for our country. As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, Kendra is fighting for them to ensure they receive the pay, benefits, and recognition they deserve for their service. During her first town hall, Kendra heard from a military family about issues of toxic mold and substandard housing at Tinker AFB. Hearing their story, Kendra immediately got to work to find a solution. She spearheaded hearings in the House Armed Services Committee and brought congressional leaders to Oklahoma to tour housing at Tinker. As a part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Kendra and Senator Jim Inhofe worked together to pass a Tenant’s Bill of Rights which provides increased protections for military families, cracks down on contractor fraud, and improves housing maintenance. This year, she introduced the bipartisan Military HOMES Act to strengthen the protections and oversight measures that passed in the Tenant’s Bill of Rights. Kendra also fought to include the biggest pay raise for service members in a decade as part of the 2O2O NDAA. The bill, which includes a 3.1 percent raise for active military, also makes a historic investment in critical new equipment for our nation’s military, and includes an amendment that Kendra introduced to help JROTC members obtain their pilots license. Red tape and government bureaucracy are a constant impediment for veterans and military families in need of the benefits they have earned through their service. In Oklahoma, Kendra and her team have helped over 1OO veterans resolve cases with the VA, returning thousands of dollars to Oklahomans who have served. This year, Kendra introduced bipartisan legislation to help redirect veterans entering the criminal justice system to Veterans Treatment Courts, which can connect veterans with the resources they need to reintegrate in their communities and prevent re-entry into the criminal justice system.
“Investments in infrastructure not only have the power to rebuild our crumbling roads and bridges, they can create lasting jobs and help American workers compete in a global economy.” – Kendra Horn Highlights:
According to the most recent Infrastructure Report Card from the American Society of Civil Engineers, our country needs to spend $3.6 trillion to repair our crumbling roads, rails, pipes, and power grids — all because of deferred maintenance and poor investment. It’s time for Washington to take our crumbling infrastructure seriously, but the biggest hurdle to making gains is partisan politics. Kendra has fought to find common ground, bringing lawmakers from both parties together in support of plans to fund investments in broadband infrastructure and to create domestic American supply chains that would help our nation weather another wave of the pandemic. In the House, Kendra fought to pass the MAPS Act and the Broadband DATA Act, bills which together would update the national broadband map and ensure that the FCC is allocating infrastructure funds to the rural, tribal, and underserved areas that need them most. This year, the president signed this legislation into law. Kendra has also led a bipartisan effort to refocus Congress on passing comprehensive and bipartisan infrastructure legislation. Kendra believes the President and Congress should work together to address key areas infrastructure needs to be improved including modernizing funding and revenue sources, encouraging innovation, regulatory streamlining and public-private partnerships. During her first term, Kendra helped to save a local bridge in Jones which connected the community with its middle school. In the wake of significant flooding and storm damage in Central Oklahoma last May, Kendra worked with the Army Corps of Engineers and local leaders to save the Wilshire Blvd Bridge from washing out.

Stephanie Bice
Bice’s campaign website stated the following:
| “ |
America’s immigration system is broken. Stephanie believes we must first enforce strong border protections, with a wall, additional border agents and technology. The safety and security of Americans should come first. We must also fix our immigration system so states like Oklahoma can have their workforce needs met. Citizenship should not be a reward for those whose first interaction with our country was an illegal act, no matter how well intentioned. However, for those that want to enter our country legally, either to become a citizen or for work purposes, we must do better to improve the process.
Healthcare has been the subject of political debate for years, but that’s all it’s been. It’s time for meaningful action toward healthcare reform. Stephanie will work to ensure families have the power and control to make decisions about their own healthcare. Democrats support a Medicare For All bill that will increase taxes by 93 trillion dollars nationwide while eliminating private insurance for Oklahoma’s working families. Instead, Stephanie will work to deliver patient-centered health care with the choice Americans want, the affordability they need, and the quality they deserve. This includes protecting coverage for Americans with pre-existing conditions. Stephanie will work to find way to address sky-high prescription drug costs, especially life-savings drugs like insulin and Epi-pens.
Oklahoma is the crossroads of America, making our infrastructure an important part of our local economy. Nationwide our infrastructure is in need of repair. Yet Washington politicians have failed to secure the funds to fix it. As a member of the Oklahoma State Senate, Stephanie helped ensure funding would continue for the state’s 8-year infrastructure construction plan. In Congress, she will work with both parties to continue building our nation’s roads and bridges and support infrastructure funding.
We owe the more than 360,000 Oklahoma veterans who fought to defend our country everything. Those who have served our country deserve access to quality healthcare, education and every economic opportunity. They deserve access to postsecondary education to help them be able to provide them better career opportunities and the ability to provide for their families. In Congress, I’ll fight for accountability and transparency for the VA. Brave Oklahomans have put their lives on the line for our state and nation. We cannot allow bureaucracy to get in the way of providing the care they need.
Oklahoma is facing a workforce crisis. We know that a skilled and stable workforce is critical to economic development. Right now, our state is working to grow pipelines between K-12, career and technology education, and higher educational institutions in collaborative and responsive ways. Stephanie has been a staunch supporter of education initiatives from K-12 through college and career opportunities, including supporting Oklahoma’s Promise and finding innovative ways to recruit new teachers. Oklahomans need post-secondary credentials to prosper in today’s competitive and technology-driven economy, whether through our colleges and universities or career techs. Stephanie will continue to advocate for education at the federal level, supporting funding for vocational schools and training programs to expand access and career options for our children.
Growing up here in Oklahoma, Stephanie believes law-abiding citizens have a constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms. In the Oklahoma State Senate, Stephanie has consistently voted to support your second amendment rights. She is a gun owner and has maintained an A rating from the NRA. In Congress, she will defend your right to bear arms.
Stephanie will fight to defend the rights of the unborn and uphold the sanctity of life. In the Oklahoma State Senate, she has supported pro-life policies and advocated against those that promote abortion.
With the number of Americans over age 65 set to double over the next 30 years, we must preserve and enhance the health care and retirement programs our seniors depend on while also helping families prepare for the demands of an aging population. Stephanie was named AARP legislator of the year and has fought to support protect our senior citizens. [23] |

Runoff elections in Oklahoma
In Oklahoma, a primary election candidate for congressional, state, or county office must receive a majority of the vote (more than 50%) to be declared the winner. If no candidate wins the requisite majority, a runoff election is held between the top two vote-getters.[28]
As of 2020, only registered Republicans could vote in Republican primaries and runoffs in Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Secretary of State website stated, "For 2020 and 2021, the Democratic Party granted permission for Independents to vote in their primaries and runoff primaries. Independents cannot vote in Republican or Libertarian primaries."[29]
