This is Nathan Dahm’s Commercial in the Oklahoma 1st Congressional District Primary Race!

Tulsa Tea Party Founder Endorses Nathan Dahm For US Congress Ok District 1

Tulsa Tea Party founder, Jai Blevins, today announces his endorsement of Nathan Dahm in the GOP Primary for Oklahoma’s 1st Congressional District.

Mr. Dahm has set himself apart from the other candidates, including incumbent John Sullivan, though his Oath to Oklahoma, a pledge that includes commitments to a self-imposed term limit, refusal of Congressional perks, working to protect the 2nd Amendment, and working to Audit, and end, the Federal Reserve. Mr. Dahm has been a supporter of, and involved in, the Tea Party Movement in the Tulsa area, since it’sinception on Feb 27, 2009. He believes in, and stands for the ideals of the Tea Party, and is the candidate for the Tulsa Tea party.

I urge everyone to visit his website, and read his positions on the issues affecting America, and I believe that you will agree.

Interesting Race for Oklahoma’s US House District 1

The Tulsa County GOP Straw Poll results were released yesterday, and the numbers for US House District 1 are very interesting.

U.S. Congress District 1

John Sullivan 52.9%

Nathan Dahm 26.6

Fran Moghaddam 1.5

Undecided 13.3

Not My District 5.7

Now, at first glance, these numbers look really strong for the incumbent John Sullivan. The meeting could be perceived as hostile territory, considering the undercurrent amongst the grassroots, against him.

However, I disagree with the take that the numbers aren’t bad for Sullivan. He has been campaigning HARD for the last month, and Nathan Dahm, the most conservative, Tea Party candidate, hasn’t even really started. Most of those in attendance didn’t even know that Sullivan was being challenged, prior to the event this past Saturday. That indicates to me, that, even with a HUGE name recognition advantage, and at least 10 volunteer staffers in attendance, Sullivan is having difficulty drawing support.

Also, these numbers show that he is vulnerable. Don’t be surprised if several others jump into the race, now. Including, Scott Pruitt. I don’t have anything solid on that, but I am hearing rumblings!

It should be an interesting race. And, at the very least, a lot less comfortable for John Sullivan than he though it would be a year ago!

Tulsa County Republican Party Candidate Meeting – Recap

Image via Wikipedia

This past Saturday Morning, “plugged-in” Tulsa County Republicans, converged on the Tulsa Technology Center to meet candidates for various offices up for election this year. With candidates ranging from Tulsa School Board hopefuls, to those seeking the GOP nomination for Governor.

It was interesting to note, the different responses each candidate received from the audience, as they were announced. Some well-known candidates, such as US Representative John Sullivan, despite having a fairly large group of volunteers present, received a very luke-warm reception, while some lesser-known candidates, like Nathan Dahm, who is challenging Sullivan for the District 1 nomination, received a VERY enthusiastic response. And, the loudest cheers, and applause, were for the State Senator from Owasso, Randy Brogdon, who is seeking the GOP nomination for Governor. His main opponent, US Representative, Mary Fallin, decided to skip this meeting, for a press event in Midwest City.

What do these disparate responses mean? Well, in my opinion, (for what it’s worth), it means that the local Republicans who are most involved in the process this year, are also the same people who are involved with the strongly Conservative Tea Party movement. The Tea Party, as well as, the Glenn Beck inspired, 9-12 Project, have been working hard, over the past year, to educate, and encourage, disenchanted Conservatives, to get involved, again. Apparently, it is working! Each of the candidates who received strong support from the crowd, has a reputation as Strong, Constitutional Conservatives, who oppose the movement of the Republican Party towards the more “moderate middle” of the RNC.

A Straw Poll was also conducted, and I will update with the reults, as soon as they are in!

Patriot Heroes Needed!!

At the end of this post is a list of Strong Conservative Candidates that I have managed to come up with so far. Men like Oklahoma Candidate for Governor Randy Brogdon, and Florida Senate Candidate Marco Rubio, and the founder of the Minutemen Chris Simcox in Arizona. I would like to build this into a fully searchable list from all 50 states, with candidates for US Congress, and Senate from every district, as well as, local & state races, such as Governor, State Legislature, Mayor, City Council, and County Assessor. Please help me build this list by commenting, so I can add them to the list!

It’s going to take more than just a few protests to return America to it’s former greatness, and restore the principles of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. We have to roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty! These folks have the Courage of their Convictions, and are willing to get into the frontlines of the battle, the least we can do is support them!

Let’s get the Right people in, and the Wrong people out!

1. Get a list of everyone who voted for Bush Bailout (TARP), Stimulus, Housing Bailout 2008, or Housing Bailout 2009. Including Congress, Senate, Governors who accepted the $$, and State Reps & Senators who voted to accept it.
2. Find out when their seat is coming up for reelection.
3. Register to Vote as a Republican(can’t change the Party from the Inside, if you’re on the outside! And you can’t complain about the type of candidates they put forth if you don’t vote in the Primaries!)
4. Find a viable, fiscal conservative candidate, and put ALL of the Tea Party resources behind them.
5. VOTE FOR THE CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE!
