Francis Anthony Keating II (born David Rowland Keating; February 10, 1944) is an American attorney, politician, and a former FBI special agent who served as the 25th governor of Oklahoma from 1995 to 2003. As of the 2022 Oklahoma gubernatorial election, Keating is one of only five governors in Oklahoma history, in addition to George Nigh, Brad Henry, Mary Fallin, and Kevin Stitt to hold consecutive terms and the first Republican to accomplish that feat. As governor, he oversaw the state's response to the Oklahoma City bombing. His term was also marked by the enactment of welfare reform and tax cuts. Keating oversaw the execution of 52 people under his term as governor, a record unmatched as of 2023.
