Tulsa Topics

Good news for the Medlock camp! This email was passed along to Tulsa Topics and I'm posting it here in it's entirety. I'm sure other Tulsa Bloggers will give you the details on this.

Tulsa Topics urges you to research the candidates and vote in the upcoming City Elections!

At its February meeting, the Tulsa Area Chapter of the Oklahoma Republican Assembly interviewed Republican candidates for Tulsa mayor, auditor, and city council. By a two-thirds super-majority vote of its members, the group endorsed the following candidates:

Chris Medlock, Tulsa Mayor

Michael Willis, Tulsa City Auditor

Rick Westcott, Tulsa City Council District 2
James Mautino, Tulsa City Council District 6
John M. Eagleton, Tulsa City Council District 7
Clifford Magee, Tulsa City Council District 8

No other endorsements of candidates were made because those candidates did not receive the required two-thirds super majority.

The group also endorsed voting FOR the proposition on the ballot.

"We believe these candidates are the best qualified and will work to move Tulsa forward," said Bob McDowell, the group's president.

The Tulsa Area Republican Assembly meets monthly, and is the local affiliate of the Oklahoma Republican Assembly, which is also affiliated with the National Federation of Republican Assemblies (NFRA).

The NFRA has a 70-year history of success as a true grassroots organization. Originally established by the California Republican Assembly, it is our nation's oldest and largest Republican volunteer organization. President Reagan said that the Republican Assembly is, "The Conscience of the Republican Party."
The NFRA is the national umbrella organization for all of the nationwide state Republican Assembly organizations.
