Fair. Impartial. Proven.

Doug Drummond’s 35-year law career stands on his record of following the Oklahoma and U.S. Constitution.

He’s devoted his professional life to public service and education. As a prosecutor in the district attorney’s office, he removed violent criminals from the streets of Tulsa County. As a professor, he taught the next generation how to make clear and ethical decisions in a world of misinformation. 

The results are an award-winning career – including the Professional Advocate Award from the Oklahoma Bar Association Criminal Division – and a reputation of being fair, impartial and proven.  

After overcoming a childhood where he attended 13 elementary schools in three states, he became the first person in his family to graduate from high school. His determination and work ethic led him to not just graduate from college but also earn four degrees: a bachelor’s degree in journalism and a master’s degree in mass communication from Oklahoma State University; a juris doctorate from the University of Tulsa College of Law; and a doctorate in higher educational administration from OSU.

After working in journalism, including at the Tulsa Tribune, he went back to the classroom to teach as a professor at OSU. After earning his law degree, Drummond became a federal law clerk for four years. 

In 1997, Drummond married Tulsa native Dana Schuler. The Drummonds have three children. They are members of Southern Hills Baptist Church in Tulsa.

That same year, then-Tulsa District Attorney Bill LaFortune, who is now Chief Judge of the Civil Division, offered Drummond a job as an assistant district attorney. He began as a felony prosecutor before being promoted to felony team captain within 18 months. Drummond continued in this capacity through the tenures of the next two district attorneys. In 2002, Tim Harris selected Drummond to serve as his first-assistant district attorney, a position held for 12 years.

In 2015, he was elected a district judge.  He went on to be the presiding judge and served on the executive committee. He also started and handled Tulsa County’s first-ever felony domestic violence docket.

His current term ends in 2026. He won re-election for judge outright in the primary in 2022. 

Based on his proven record, trust, ethics, past successes, work ethic and considerable experience working with the law, vote for Doug Drummond on June 16.
