Federal Representation
Oklahoma's two U.S. Senators are elected at-large:
- Senior Senator Jim Inhofe (Republican)
- Junior Senator Tom Coburn (Republican)
Oklahoma currently has five congressional districts. There were 6th, 7th, and 8th districts, as many as three at-large districts, but they have been eliminated.
U.S. House of Representatives:
- Oklahoma's 1st congressional district covers the northeastern corner of the state and it borders Kansas to the north — Rep. Jim Bridenstine (Republican).
- Oklahoma's 2nd congressional district covers (approximately) the eastern one-fourth of the state, bordering Kansas to the north, Missouri and Arkansas to the east, and Texas along the Red River to the south — Rep. Markwayne Mullin (Republican).
- Oklahoma's 3rd congressional district covers all of western Oklahoma and borders New Mexico to the west, Colorado and Kansas to the north, and the Texas panhandle to the south — Rep. Frank Lucas (Republican).
- Oklahoma's 4th congressional district covers south-central Oklahoma and borders Texas along the Red River to the south — Rep. Tom Cole (Republican).
- Oklahoma's 5th congressional district covers central Oklahoma and borders all of the other congressional districts except District 1. — Rep. James Lankford (Republican).
