Happy to work on this op-ed for the @JournalRecord with Keith Eakins explaining why SB 1782 is both unconstitutional and bad for OK's long-term economic growth.

Oklahoma needs competitive parties. SQ 836 wouldn't have fixed that.

Always great to get to visit with @McFerron about OK and national politics. I always come away feeling like I learned something new.

[Not My Generation Podcast @NMGpodcast]

Excellent conversation with the always insightful @McFerron about early polling on the 2026 gubernatorial race, electoral reform in OK, and dark money in OK politics. Both @politikphd and @ProfDavenport enjoyed the discussion.

"If one assumes...a 5% increase in voter turnout from shifting to an open primary system, the state would remain in the bottom 10 of states for voter turnout - hardly a dramatic shift."

[Doc Davenport @ProfDavenport]

Qualitative or quantitative - that was one of the questions @politikphd and I discussed with @UCOBronchos political scientist Ken Kickham. We also visited about the challenges of being a public intellectual. Give it a listen!
