OKLAHOMA CITY — A new member of the Oklahoma House was sworn in Wednesday morning after winning a special election for a vacant seat in a north-central district.

Rep. Dillon Travis, R-Maramec, who represents House District 35, said he looked “forward to protecting rural Oklahoma” after being sworn in by Oklahoma Supreme Court Chief Justice Dustin Rowe.

Travis was elected during a special election Feb. 10 with 64% of the district’s vote. He’ll fill a vacancy left by former Rep. Ty Burns, R-Pawnee, who resigned after pleading guilty to domestic violence charges.
