Miss Oklahoma USA 2017 is Alex Smith

The national competition will be held in June of 2017.

They are in the top 20 states in terms of number of semi-finalists. Olivia Jordan was crowned Miss USA 2015 on July 12, 2015 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, becoming the first contestant from Oklahoma to win the national title.
