The Oklahoma State Auditor and Inspector is an elected Constitutional officer for the U.S. State of Oklahoma. The State Auditor and Inspector is responsible for auditing and prescribing bookkeeping standards of all government agencies and county treasurers within Oklahoma.^[1] The office in its current form is a consolidation of the office of State Auditor with that of the office of State Examiner and Inspector, both of which dated back to statehood in 1907. The two positions were combined in 1979 after passage of State Question 510 in 1975.^[2] Tom Daxon was the first person to hold the combined office and the first Republican as all previous occupants of either position were Democrats.

The 13th State Auditor and Inspector is Cindy Byrd, who began her four-year term in 2019.
