Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt faces three challengers in the Feb. 8 election. Oklahoman reporter Hogan Gore joins The Source podcast this week to talk about the mayor and candidates Carol Hefner, Jimmy Lawson and Frank Urbanic.

Gore reported on the race this week after the three challengers went on stage to debate, an event the mayor did not attend. A big topic of discussion was homelessness in the city, along with the MAPS program.
