Ajay Pittman Resigns Amid Campaign Finance Investigation

Ajay Pittman Resigns Following Campaign Finance Investigation

The Ajay Pittman resignation is now official following an ongoing investigation into her handling of campaign funds while serving in the Oklahoma House of Representatives.

House leadership confirmed Pittman stepped down amid questions surrounding reimbursements connected to her campaign finances. The allegations became public in October, prompting further review by state officials.

Ajay Pittman resignation follows caucus removal

House Democratic Leader Cyndi Munson previously confirmed that Pittman was removed from the Democratic Caucus pending the outcome of the investigation. Munson said the decision was made after concerns were raised about campaign finance compliance.

The matter remains under review by the Oklahoma Ethics Commission, which oversees campaign finance reporting and enforcement for state candidates and elected officials.

Investigation and next steps

State election law requires candidates to properly report and reimburse campaign expenditures. Ethics Commission investigations can result in fines, corrective actions, or referrals depending on findings.

Pittman’s resignation creates a vacancy in the House that will be filled according to Oklahoma election law, which outlines procedures for replacing legislators who leave office before their term ends.

House leaders say no further comment will be made until the investigation is complete.
