Adam Graham

Adam Graham is an American politician who served as a city councilor and mayor of The Village, Oklahoma, until his resignation on July 18, 2022. Graham was the first openly-gay and youngest mayor of The Village, Oklahoma.

Career
Graham was first elected to serve on The Village, Oklahoma's city council in 2019. In May 2022, he was elected mayor of The Village by the city council, becoming at 29 the youngest mayor in the town's history.

Resignation
He resigned on July 18, 2022, citing harassment, including being followed home from meetings, being threatened while walking his dog, being harassed at Starbucks, and having his car tires slashed. Graham blamed the harassment on an incident with police from the neighboring city of Nichols Hills, where body camera footage showed Graham telling officers they had no jurisdiction to issue traffic tickets in The Village. While some reporting after his resignation identified Graham as the first openly-gay mayor in Oklahoma, Graham is at least the second openly-gay mayor after Achille, Oklahoma, mayor David Northcutt.
