Marcus Flowers and Ryan Shead sit down with Air Force veteran Chris Fowler, a first-time candidate running for the Oklahoma House in District 91, to talk about why local races matter and how everyday issues are reshaping politics on the ground. Fowler shares how concerns over education, cost of living, and community accountability pushed him from military service into public service, and what he’s hearing from voters across party lines. The conversation highlights the importance of showing up, listening, and building the next generation of leadership from the state and local level up.
