Nearly 1,400 people turned out, about a quarter of Ward 1's registered voters and hundreds more than voted when Blevins was first elected

People have figured out that sitting by and watching NAZI's take over the US is not good.

Have they? I've got my doubts.

"Blevins denied he was or ever had been a white supremacist, and said he was motivated by "the same issues that got Donald Trump elected in 2016".

.

Well, he's right about being the same side of issues as Trump..... wait.

Another Trump VP candidate!

I can't believe they ousted him.

He got them a Texas Roadhouse for Christs sakes!!!!

Question is:

Why didn't they know what he was before they voted him in. A little investigation could have saved them the trouble. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

I have no sympathy for suckers who don't even make the effort.

Not just in Oklahoma, but everywhere in the United States ~~ all the way up to the presidency. They're not that hard to spot.

Why didn't they know...

Probably because the USA doesn't have a functioning local press anymore. There's no one to tell them.

More than likely this guy is another who got elected because here in Okiehomie voters can still vote 'straight ticket', checking a box for all candidates in their favored party. Doing so relieves area voters (in the state where we have one of the worst public education systems in the country) from doing any investigation, or even any thinking about who they are voting for.

Want more election fun? Our Governor Brownshoes Stitt wants it to be made possible for individuals to make UNLIMITED donations to a candidate, and the state legislature is trying to make it much, much harder for state-wide referendums to get onto state-side ballots, by requiring a minimum percentage of voters in each county to sign a petition for the proposal, and the petitions all must be completed in a limited amount of time, and paid petition canvassers must be registered, screened and pay a fee. Only in the Sooner or Later State...
