That’s odd. When did they start changing some of the Mayoral election schedules of these cities ? That’s the second one I’ve learned of today (the other being Camden, NJ, which on my list I thought wasn’t up until next year). Tulsa’s wasn’t supposed to be until next year as well. I try to keep meticulous track of that...

Anyway, although Tulsa is GOP-leaning, since then-Mayor Jim Inhofe left office in ‘84, we’ve only won twice, once in ‘88 (for a two-year term) and again in ‘02 (Bill LaFortune lost reelection in ‘06). Dewey Bartlett, Jr. is the namesake son of the former Governor and Senator.

It's a shortage of quality Republican/Conservative candidates, combined with money coming from somewhere???? to fund the campaigns of the Rats. Adelson outspent Bartlett almost 2 to 1.

I hope Bartlett can begin to redeem the Republican party after the administration of Bill Lafortune, who is a decent guy but was in the wrong job as mayor.

Bartlett kinda reminds me of the microsoft guy in the TV commercials. :)

Le fortune was worthless and a crook.
