Question about OK

I noticed that the "other" vote in OK is higher than most other states. Any local DUers who can provide insight as to why? (6.6 percent)

Thanks!

I know there are other names on all the ballots, but normally see that vote at around 2 percent. Just wondered if there was a reason it would so much higher here.

I'm surprised so many people went that route.
