A father running for office in Oklahoma has been found dead.
On Thursday, the body of Barry Christian, 54, was found inside his vehicle at a wildlife refuge near Erick, a small city in Western Oklahoma, just a few miles east of the Texas panhandle.
'We are still not sure of everything that happened.'
Christian was reported missing on Wednesday after he failed to appear for a scheduled meeting. He was last seen on Tuesday in Sayre, Oklahoma, about 15 miles from Erick.
The Oklahoma Bureau of Investigation confirmed that Christian was running for the state Senate, and it seems his campaign was active at the time of his death. His Facebook account posted an invite to a meet-and-greet at a rattlesnake festival in Mangum on Saturday.
State election records confirmed that on April 2, he filed to run as a Republican for Senate District 38. On his campaign website, Christian portrayed himself as a pro-Trump "conservative" who supported the First and Second Amendments and opposed open borders and abortion.
Christian's name will still appear on the ballot for the Republican primary race in June. There are two other candidates in the race, though the incumbent, state Sen. Brent Howard (R), is not one of them. Howard announced last year that he would not seek a third term, NonDoc reported.
Like most of the state, the 38th Senate District is overwhelmingly Republican. President Donald Trump carried some counties in Southwest Oklahoma by upwards of 75% in 2024.
While the political race will carry on, the Christian family is shattered by the loss of Barry, according to a statement from daughter Brooklyn:
A cause of death has not yet been determined, and the OSBI is still actively investigating this case. When reached for comment, the agency directed Blaze News to its social media page.

One of the long-standing institutions of right-wing politics has been taken down. But it is not done fighting.
After 27 years, Infowars' website has officially been taken offline after a protracted legal fight with satire website the Onion.
'We are committed, and if God stands with us, who can stand against us?!'
Alex Jones, the face of Infowars for nearly 30 years, did a final stream on Thursday night before the final shutdown of operations became official.

Although Jones said that the lights were being shut off at midnight on Thursday and the website would go dark, the fight is far from over.
He directed his audience to his new network, Alex Jones Live. He also suggested that the legal fight was just getting started, saying that he had "royal flushes" in the ongoing legal fight, including whistleblowers.
Nearing the end of his final sign-off, Jones gave a toast: "We commit ourselves to God in this holy fight. We are committed, and if God stands with us, who can stand against us?!"
"Thank you for everything you built with InfoWars, Mr. Jones. We know you won't stop fighting for the Truth," the John Birch Society said on X.
"Alex Jones was forced to shut down Infowars tonight. Never forget that free speech is being violated with Trump in office. This country has become a shell of what it used to be," commentator Morgan Ariel said.
The Onion has attempted to acquire the Infowars domain for years but has hit many snags that have delayed the acquisition.

Windows PC users will finally have their dreams come true with the smallest of tweaks by Microsoft.
On Friday, a Windows Insider blog said the company was ready to start rolling out an update that would change a feature that has aggravated users for more than 25 years.
'The changes we're rolling out today are focused on giving Windows users more control over their PC experience.'
The Windows blogger said she was excited to share the new update, which came after reading "over 7,621 direct verbatims" over the last few months.
Change is coming to Windows' auto-update feature, a plague that has forced itself on users for more than a quarter of a century.
The updates started as optional when they were available to users of Windows '98. However, PC users were robbed of that freedom when updates became automatic with shipments of Windows 2000, which embedded the feature in its software.
All of that is about to scale back.
"Across this feedback there are two key themes that persistently pop out: disruption caused by untimely updates and not enough control over when updates happen," wrote Windows blogger Aria Hanson. "The changes we're rolling out today are focused on giving Windows users more control over their PC experience, while keeping devices secure by design and by default."
Users should be fairly happy with the rollout, and the changes were readily available at the time of this writing.

The update consists of four main tweaks, starting with the ability to skip updates immediately during the "out of box experience."
This means that when setting up a new computer or buying a new version of Windows, users can avoid lengthy updates that drastically delay the time it takes to get up and running.
Next is the ability to pause updates for as long as needed. This comes in 35-day increments for some reason, but Microsoft says it can be done indefinitely.
"This means you can now re-pause for up to 35 days at a time, with no limits on how many times you can reset the pause end date," the company wrote.
Return tested this on a PC running Windows 11 and was able to pause updates for "5 Weeks," or 35 days.
More relief has also come in terms of shutting down or restarting Windows.

"Restarting or shutting down your PC should always be simple, predictable, and on your terms — even with updates waiting to be installed," Windows said; and everyone agrees.
Windows can now shut down or restart without updating. Previously, this was mandatory. So if a computer crashed or froze and needed to reboot, that update was happening whether the user liked it or not.
Lastly, Microsoft promised more insights on updates and increased transparency on what drivers do.
"Often, driver updates would have similar, if not identical, titles. To help provide you with more insights, we have added the device class to the driver title," the blog stated.
In the end, the company is promising fewer disruptions, but it will still push a "monthly quality update" to reduce "update experience to a single monthly restart."
