McCall for Governor Announces $1.3 Million to Launch Statewide Campaign

ATOKA, Oklahoma (April 3, 2025) – Charles McCall’s campaign for governor is off to a historically fast-paced start, posting more than $1.33 million in total receipts during the campaign’s first six-weeks. The announcement signals broad support and significant energy behind for McCall’s vision to lead Oklahoma as a proven, conservative leader dedicated to keeping Oklahoma Great.

“I am deeply humbled by the support from Oklahomans who believe – as I do – that while our state is great, our best days are still ahead of us,” said McCall. “From strengthening our economy to safeguarding our individual freedoms, this campaign is about building on the accomplishments President Trump is carrying out in Washington and the resulting conservative momentum we are realizing here in Oklahoma.”

Following McCall’s official launch in February, he has raised $638,000 from individual donors - matching the enthusiasm the campaign is receiving from Republican voters in every corner of the state. In keeping with his commitment to Oklahoma’s future, McCall has also personally invested an additional $601,000. In doing so, McCall is signaling that he’s fully invested in the mission to deliver real, lasting results for Oklahoma families. The campaign also received a $100,000 transfer from a pre-existing campaign committee.

“In every corner of our great state, I hear from Oklahomans who want a leader who will protect and carry on the successes we have realized. And our citizens deserve that leader – one is accountable to the people, committed to conservative principles, and carries themselves with the highest integrity,” McCall said. “We are not just building a campaign, we are building a movement focused on values and results, not rhetoric. I couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead.”

As former Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives, McCall has a record of conservative accomplishments, including historic tax cuts, protecting innocent lives, expanding economic opportunity, passing some of the nation’s toughest immigration laws, and advancing school freedom for all Oklahoma children - all while safeguarding the state’s fiscal integrity.

With more than $1.33 million cash on hand and hundreds of grassroots supporters on board, the McCall for Governor campaign enters as a top contender in the 2026 Republican primary.
