I don’t think he’ll be re-elected. It was a fake win since he was replacing a more legitimate (albeit still not good republican) long standing senator in a special case.
He’s objectively the worst person in the Senate. He owned a business here that was successful and had a much better reputation but has now revealed himself as a stain.
I think Oklahoma may actually swing slightly D soon-ish. We had a D governor not long ago who was well liked. Joy got 42% of the vote in 2022.
I get it. It’s hard to not get your hopes up, sometimes. But Oklahoma is DEEP red. I used to live in NW AR, and my in-laws live in Tulsa. I think your hope is misplaced.
Eh, it’s the largest weed producing state in the country and also is likely to be one of the early mushroom states. Stitt in all his idiocy just sanctioned a massive market where psilocybin spore kits were sold by the pallet load.
There is a lot more shadow wealth here that will make aggressive “progressive” choices because it’s profitable. The same is not true in any of the Deep South. The last time I was in Oxford, Mississippi, Uber was outlawed and there was 11:30pm legally enforced last call.
OKC growth rate is very high; it is the place that will tip the scale ultimately.
Your current governor just came out in favor of cockfighting. Don’t be surprised when this guy gets re-elected.
The fastest growing counties, which also have the largest and densest populations, all voted handily Blue the last election: 55-42, 52-45, and 49-48. I don’t think that trend will see a sudden reversal.
