Logan County, OK — Diane Vaughan, current Logan County Special Judge and longtime public servant, today announced her candidacy for Logan County Associate District Judge, pledging to continue her steadfast commitment to the rule of law, fairness, upholding the Constitution, and service to the people of Logan County.
“My experience as a former prosecutor and Air Force JAG Officer have taught me to place service to our community over self. I am seeking election to continue serving you and ensure our courts are a place where the law is applied fairly, faithfully, and without bias.”
Judge Vaughan brings many years of legal and public service experience to the bench. She is a retired veteran of the United States Air Force Judge Advocate General’s Corps (JAG), where she served her country with distinction for nearly 21 years, she owned a private law practice in Guthrie, and also served as an Assistant District Attorney in Logan County, representing the interests of justice and advocating for public safety in the Logan County community.
Judge Vaughan is a committed legal textualist who believes in applying the laws of Oklahoma as they are written. She is dedicated to upholding the Constitution, applying statutes faithfully, and ensuring that personal views never replace the law itself. Her judicial philosophy centers on fairness, equity, and ensuring meaningful access to the courts for all citizens.
“County government and public service are deeply important to me,” she said. “The judiciary plays a vital role in maintaining public trust. Every person who enters the courtroom deserves to be heard, treated with respect, and assured that the law guides the outcome.”
Judge Vaughan and her family have been proud members of the Logan County community since 2007. Her husband is a teacher at Guthrie Junior High School, and together they have raised their two children in Logan County. Their family’s deep roots in the community reinforce her dedication to service and to preserving the integrity of the local justice system.
Throughout her career, Judge Vaughan has demonstrated integrity, professionalism, and a tireless commitment to justice. She looks forward to continuing her work on behalf of the citizens of Logan County.
