Dana Murphy is a Republican politician from the U.S. state of Oklahoma. Murphy is currently serving her second term, and first full term, on the Oklahoma Corporation Commission.
Murphy defeated Democrat Jim Roth, who was appointed in 2007 by Democratic Governor of Oklahoma Brad Henry, in a 2008 special election to fill the seat vacated by Republican Denise Bode.
Murphy ran for a full term in 2010 and handily won the primary election. As no Democrat or independent candidate filed, Murphy thus retained her seat.[1]
