Do you think Bill LaFortune gets the message?

Seen in the March 7th edition of the Tulsa World on page E6.

We the citizens of Tulsa express our full faith and confidence in Chief Dave Been and petition Mayor Bill LaFortune to promptly reinstate him to his office of Chief of Police.

I'm sure this is something that Bill LaFortune has heard time and time again since his political fiasco regarding Chief Been. By the way if you haven't heard, Bill LaFortune is running for re-election against Kathy Taylor in the April 4th General Election.

Screen capture of the March 7th Republican primary election results.

LaFortune didn't do too well in Primaries and squeaked by just shy of 45% of the vote. Not good for an incumbent considering the exellent name recognition he has. Of course lately, I'm sure LaFortune could do without the negative connotations associated with his name in review of his first term as Mayor.

Should LaFortune be concerned about an advertisement touting support of Chief Dave Been?

More analysis after the jump..........


If he's smart he would. Here is the full page ad that was ran in the March 7th Tulsa World. One thousand and fourteen (1,014) names are on that page. My wife and I account for two of those signatures!

LaFortune hasn't done anything in the last four years to make me EXCITED (a word LaFortune loves to use) about voting for him again. In fact I pretty much have the mentality of "anyone but Bill" going into the General Election. LaFortune has a lot of messed up fences to mend and not much time to accomplish that task!
