Challenger Says Lawmaker is a Body Double

Oklahoma congressional candidate Tim Murray (R) has announced he plans to contest this week’s primary election of Rep. Frank Lucas (R-OK) saying “it is widely known” that Lucas “is no longer alive and has been displayed by a look alike,” KFOR reports.

Murray says on his website that Lucas was executed in Ukraine in 2011.

Lucas responded: “Many things have been said about me, said to me during course of my campaigns. This is the first time I’ve ever been accused of being a body double or a robot.”
