Wade wades in: Rev. Burleson is minister, writer, former Baptist Convention president – and Congressional Candidate
On February 1, Wade Burleson of Enid, Oklahoma, a minister, writer, and the former President of the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma, announced that he had officially filed as a Republican candidate for Oklahoma’s 3rd Congressional District.
By May 1, his quiet days of quietly campaigning to seize the Republican Party nomination from long-time incumbent U.S. Rep. Frank Lucas were over.
Truth is, Burleson was never really quiet. It’s just that more people are paying attention.
