THE NATIONAL POPULAR VOTE AND THOSE WHO SUPPORT IT: PART TWO


THE NATIONAL POPULAR VOTE AND THOSE WHO SUPPORT IT:
PART TWO


THE WATCHMAN
This week we bring you the second installment of those accepting trips from the National Popular Vote lobbyist. Yes, they have a lobbyist pushing it at the state capital. Once again, we received some good information on the subject from the Muskogeepolitico.org. What we found was that some of the senior levels of politicians are not for this proposal.

We’ll begin by going to Lt.Governor Matt Pinnell. You can read his comments by going to this link. He is a long-time opponent pf the National Popular Vote and remains stead fast in his opposition.

Another of the state leaders opposed to the National Popular Vote is the Senate-pro tem Senator Treat.
You can find Senator Treats comments by going to this link here. He too is a long-time opponent to the effort.

The Oklahoma Republicans Who Cozy Up to the National Popular Vote


WHO IN OKLAHOMA WANT TO SILENCE YOUR VOTE
THE NATIONAL POPULAR VOTE AND THOSE WHO SUPPORT IT

-THE WATCHMAN
We read a disturbing article the other day by Mr. Jamison Faught of the MuskogeePolitico.com. Even though as recently indicated on Friday the 13th of September of 2019, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Ginsburg, the most liberal of the 9 Justices, considered doing away with the electoral college was absurd. Now they don’t come out and flat say that they want to give away your vote or even do away of the electoral college, but that’s what in affect what the national popular vote would do. It’s a blatant attempt to give all elections to the liberal east and west coast by saying your representatives on the electoral college must vote for the person running for the Office of the President who receives the most votes regardless of how your state voted.

Quoting from the article “The legislature is very concerned about voter apathy and declining participation. I told them in 2015 that elections need to be meaningful for Oklahomans” says David Van Risseghem, editor of SoonerPolitics.org. It still is today.

ANOTHER FAKE REPUBLICAN SHOWS HIS TRUE COLORS



THE WATCHMAN

From time to time we come across am elected official that goes so far against what the party is doing, that we just have to ask them to leave the party. We came across one such Republican traitor last week. Once again it concerns the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution. The law he wants to see off the books is the recently passed “Constitutional Carry” law.

What made us take a look at this individual was this article in the Muskogeepolitico.com. We have here an elected Republican official who not only spoke at a rally to repeal the law, but also had the nerve and audacity to misrepresent the legislation to his hometown City Counsel in order to get them to join in the petition against the Constitutional Carry law.

We know that this is nothing more than a political stunt started by Representative Lowe to gain name recognition. In actuality we can say, by this example, that in reality all this petition was for was to split the state much like what the Democratic National party is doing to this country. This isn’t being done to protect the innocent at all. What is it that is causing these allegedly highly educated Representatives don’t understand about the phrase in part: shall not be infringed” do they fail to understand. As the saying goes “You can’t fix stupid.”
