Career

In October 1993, upon the resignation of a city councilor, Rowe was appointed to the Tishomingo, Oklahoma city council at the age of 18 while still a junior in high school. He was elected to the council in April 1994 and then the city council elected him mayor. He became the youngest mayor in Oklahoma history and making him one of the youngest mayors in United States history.[2] He served as mayor for two terms.

He was the city attorney for Tishomingo,[3] and was a judge with the Chickasaw Nation.[4]

Potential congressional run in 2012

In 2011, Rowe formed an exploratory committee to decide whether to run for Oklahoma's 2nd congressional district after sitting Congressman Dan Boren (D-Muskogee) announced his retirement in the 2012 election. Rowe's 2012 run was unsuccessful, as he finished in fourth place with only 10 percent of the vote.[5]

Appointment to Oklahoma Supreme Court

On November 20, 2019, Governor Kevin Stitt appointed Rowe the Oklahoma Supreme Court to fill the vacancy left by Patrick Wyrick who was confirmed as a federal district court judge.[1]
