A member of the Republican Party, Bynum is the 40th mayor of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Prior to becoming mayor, he served as a city councilor for Tulsa's ninth district. CareerBynum attended Cascia Hall Preparatory School in Tulsa, Oklahoma,[1] and Villanova University. He served as student body president in his senior year at Villanova and founded a school club for Republicans.[2] Bynum worked as a staffer for United States Senators Don Nickles and Tom Coburn from 2000 through 2006. He returned to Tulsa to work for a real estate auction company, Williams & Williams. He was laid off in 2009, along with a third of the Williams & Williams employees. He and a partner, Stuart McCalman, opened a lobbying firm, Capitol Ventures Government Relations, working on behalf of municipalities and businesses.[3] In 2008, Bynum won election to a two-year term representing District 9 on the Tulsa City Council. He was re-elected three times.[3] In 2011, his colleagues appointed him Council Chairman. He served as Chairman through 2012.[3] Bynum ran for mayor of Tulsa in 2016, and defeated Dewey F. Bartlett Jr., the incumbent mayor, in the June 2016 election by a 56 percent to 38 percent margin. By receiving over 50% of the vote, he avoided the August runoff election.[4][5] He was inaugurated as mayor on December 5, 2016. He is the third-youngest person to serve as mayor of Tulsa.[6] Personal lifeBynum and his wife, Susan, have two children. His second child was born two weeks before he was laid off in 2009.[3] Robert J. LaFortune, the mayor of Tulsa from 1970 through 1978, is Bynum's grandfather. Bynum's uncle, Bill LaFortune, served as mayor from 2002 to 2006. Bynum is a descendent of R. N. Bynum, who served as mayor from 1899 to 1900.[7]See also
