Timothy Ray Murray, who lost out to opponent Frank Lucas in the Oklahoma Republican Primary said that Lucas was executed and replaced by a robot.
In his statement, Murray said that it was widely known that Rep. Frank D. Lucas was no longer alive, claiming that Lucas was in fact hanged in a televised execution in Ukraine in 2011 and was replaced by a robot body double, the Daily Star reported.
Lucas, on the other hand said that this was the first time he was ever been accused of being a body double or a robot.
Murray added that he will never use an Artificial Intelligence lookalike to voice what the representative's office was doing nor own a robot look alike.
