Al McAffrey, born in Konawa, Oklahoma and raised in Sulfur, is the first openly gay person to be elected to the Oklahoma Legislature. He served in the Oklahoma House of Representatives, representing District 88 (Oklahoma City), after winning the 2006 election. He served three consecutive terms.
When Senator Andrew Rice announced he would resign from the Oklahoma Senate in January 2012, McAffrey announced his candidacy for the seat and won the special election.
He has made two bids for the US House of Representatives, but has not been successful.
