@JuevosGigante@Rightwing_Josh@MazzeiMike I'm not voting for either of these two. Idc, they can flip the state blue if that's what it takes to wake Republicans up and realize we don't want paid endorsements and dark money in power. Give us a true conservative loyal to Oklahoma. Merrick was the only right option.
@brooks_caedmon@MazzeiMike Can you tell me the Oklahoma Governor's salary vs. what Mazzie has spent trying to obtain it. Then if you could explain to me like I'm 5 years old how it makes any sense and he's still beholden to the people here in the state.
@DrewUBS_OKC@LokiNiner@gentnerdrummond Mazzie was rejected yesterday in rural Oklahoma. Calling every conservative who isn't MAGA like myself a RINO is played out. I'm not a fan of Drummond's either, the only thing he has going for him in my book is that he didn't hitch his wagon to Roger Stone.
Conservative values used to be about independence, freedom from federal control, and less spending. Oklahoma, what have you become?
Mazzei spent $11,000,000 which is $105 per vote and sold out Oklahoma interests for a pat on the head endorsement from DC and more Fox News time.
Jake Merrick spent $1 per vote and beat the former speaker of the house who spent over $4,500,000 ($95 per vote). He wasn't allowed into the debate despite polling above McCall. No ads, no Fox News tv time.
Yes, at present, Oklahoma elections are bought,
not won.
However, there is a glimmer of hope.
Thank you @JakeMerrick4Gov for showing that grit and faith can still have impact.
For those saying Jake was a spoiler...
I have news for you.
Your candidates were already spoiled, elitist, sellouts long before this election, and like any other pile of spoiled fruit, they are just going to smell worse and worse as this drags on...
