Tulsa GOP Convention Preview

3/21/2017

Comments

 
​ Tonight, the Tulsa Area Republican Assemblies held a Convention Preview just days ahead of the Saturday County Convention. Every elective office in the party appears to be up for grabs. All the current office holders are so far indicating that they are not seeking to keep their office.

  David McLain spoke to the crowded hall about why he is stepping up to run for County Chairman. McLain narrowly lost a special election for senator, last year.

​ Allen Branch also indicated his intention to run for County Chair, but said he would support McLain if he is unsuccessful. Both candidates specifically pledged to open the county resources for the sake of precinct development. It was one of the most controversial policies that retiring chairman Mike Ford has instituted.  It led to the lowest turnout of precinct meeting participants since before Dewey Bartlett Sr. was governor.

  Terry Flattem is the lone candidate for County Vice Chairman. Terry is a dedicated volunteer for the past several years. Recently, Terry says that chairman Ford kicked him out of the office and barred him from volunteering at the headquarters. Terry says that several precinct members needed to contact their local leaders and Flattem decided to accommodate the connection instead of waiting for chairman Ford to personally approve of the release of precinct information. This information has always been fully accessable to all party members and posted on the party website; until Mike Ford clamped down on the access.
