CRTV: 2016 Congressional Scorecard

   Northeast Oklahoma's congressman, Jim Bridenstine, enjoys the highest conservative rating of any of Oklahoma's federal delegation. With a 97% conservative rating from Conservative Review, Bridenstine scores an 'A', and leaves the rest of the state's delegation is dismal shame.

  The only other members with passing grades are the two US senators, James Inhofe and James Lankford. they scored 'C' with 72% and 71%, respectively. Failing grades were assigned to the rest of Oklahoma's delegation. Markwayne Mullin collected a 'D' with 63%, Steve Russell posted an 'F' 53%. Frank Lucas and Tom Cole posted 34% & 33%, respectively.

MP: Conservative Performance Index- 2016

From Jamison Faught, of the Muskogee Politico.

I've developed a rating system to determine how Republican each state house and state senate district is. The formula is comprised of the three elements: Mitt Romney's percentage in the 2012 presidential election (federal-level), Mary Fallin's performance in the 2014 gubernatorial election (state-level), and Republican voter registration (local-level).

Have a look at each full list. I included which members are leaving office (not seeking reelection, defeated in primaries, or term limited), as well as which districts have general election races.

Then I'll post what I'm calling the Conservative Performance Index, where we'll examine each legislator's conservative score (an average of two different conservative rating systems) and compare it to their district's Republican rating.

House Districts 

Read the full report and the CR charts, at Muskogee Politico

At 70.6%, the most Republican district is HD61, which is comprised of the Panhandle and the far northwestern part of the state. The next three most Republican districts (HD67 - 69.7%, HD80 - 69.6%, HD69 - 69.1%) are all in south Tulsa and Broken Arrow, and #5 goes to HD41 at 68.7% (a gerrymandered district running from Enid to the edge of OKC).

Sooner Tea Party: 2016 RINO Index

  About two hours into typing up the list of bills covered in this year's RINO Index, lots of links and explanations of why these bills were important to document the votes to be used to hold the politicians accountable and poof…. Jesus saves but I didn't.   Auto recovery not functioning either, set to a non existent folder.   Arrrggghhhhh!

    So you are going to get a short version and we will expand upon what the 2016 Oklahoma RINO Index covers and why in the next week's newsletter.  The charts below can be shared by right clicking on it and copy and paste or save as, and posted on social media or sent via email.  We worked some long hours since Friday night to get this accomplished.  The rush?  Because we have lost control of the House of Representatives, it was sold out to the highest bidder, Rep. Charles McCall.  Time to fight back.

Oklahoma Constitution: Conservative Index

The 2016 Oklahoma Conservative Index

Constitution Staff

  The Oklahoma Constitution presents the 38th annual Oklahoma Conservative Index, rating our state legislators. Members of each house of the Oklahoma Legislature were rated on ten key votes. A favorable vote on these issues represents a belief in limited government, individual liberty, free enterprise, constitutional government, and traditional standards.

  After taking suggestions from conservatives leaders, the staff of the Oklahoma Constitution submitted bills to a vote of the membership of the Oklahoma Conservative Political Action Committee (OCPAC) for recommendations of the ten key votes.
