There's a good possibility that another Republican may enter the race...but I can't tell you who.
State Sen. Todd Lamb is also being touted as a potential candidate. He received a plurality of votes at the Stephens County Fish Fry Straw Poll (44 for Lamb, 38 for Wright, 14 for Schwartz, 131 undecided).
Other people mentioned for the office include past candidates Todd Hiett and Scott Pruitt.
