(AP) -- OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Records of Gov. Brad Henry's campaign account show it still has $113,000 left in it as he nears the end of his second and final term.

Paul Sund, a spokesman for the governor, said Henry hadn't decided yet what to do with what's left in the account when he leaves office. But, in the meantime, Sund said, Henry is using the money to pay for some office expenses and political activities.

According to Sund, state ethics rules allow the governor several options for the money, including charitable donations.
