Stephanie Bice

There, there's a lot of ifs there.

Any information about Oklahoma? I mean, I had heard that perhaps the Gina Nelson, Stephanie Bice race was close.

It is.

You know, uh, w- wish, wish casting, I hope John Crescent has a chance up in District 1, but I know what Oklahoma is.

Um, but like, it's...

I'm very curious to see, like I said, sort of the, you know, the jelly bleed into the peanut butter of the PBJ that is Oklahoma in this thing, because it's there.

And, uh, you know, it may be that, you know, the m- the Stephanie Bice race, uh, does flip because Oklahoma City is big.

Maybe Crescent flips.

Not even every notable Oklahoma Republican candidate was there.

Stephanie Bice was not there, um, which I think tells us, uh, a lot about how her campaign is feeling about her race, you know, up here closer to the metro.

Um, but you did see people like TW Shannon and Governor Stitt and Mike Mazey, and all those folks down there who, you know, wanted to be seen with the president because they felt like it would help them in some way.

Mm-hmm.

He won't show up for people in CD1.

And I see the same thing with Stephanie Bice.

I see the same thing with Mike Mazey, who, you know, they had to record the debate last night with Cindy Munson so that he could go down and, uh, at, and be at the debate.

Uh, or not debate, at, you know, for Trump.

So this is a good strategy for anybody to go out to their safest districts, make sure that people are enthusiastic enough to come out and vote for those Republican candidates on Election Day.

Well, how safe are these Oklahoma races? From what you're seeing, is the Oklahoma race for governor, Stephanie Bice's seat in the Fifth Congressional District, are these in serious play?

I'm not sure I would say that they are in serious play.

I think CD5, yeah, that, that is a, an election that you can look at a little more closely in terms of the possibility for a Democrat to do well in that particular district.

We haven't heard much from Tedford.

And then Gina Nelson, Stephanie Bice is on her heels.

I mean, if all that happens, then in Democrats are getting out to vote, then why wouldn't Cindy Munson have a chance?

I mean, that's what I mean, right? If like what this is, is like this sort of like cascade effect in which the Republicans are being like, I'm sorry, we have to go rescue a Trump endorsed Republican governor candidate in Oklahoma 30 days out from the election.

and because of our self sorting as voters, but mostly because of gerrymandering, that we have no competitive, no really competitive congressional districts.

However, this week, the Daily Oklahoman, or I guess it's just called the Oklahoman now, but the Oklahoman reported that the National Democratic Party was getting involved in CD5, Congressional District 5, which is currently held by Stephanie Bice.

Her challenger, of course, is Gina Nelson.

And the article reported on a poll that was commissioned and put out by the Gina Nelson campaign.

Right.

Which I mean, I wonder if that is part of why he's doing this visit to Oklahoma.

But who knows? But I did think that in the same week you had Stephanie Bice and former, you know, state House member Mark McBride, like had an op ed about this.

And they're both like, hey, look, I was with the president for a long time, but he's he's out on a limb on his own.

and tell our stories basically to them and try to convince them to co-author these bills.

I had already gotten Stephanie Bice, my Congresswoman, to sign on as an original co-author and stuff.

And so, but we did have a meeting with her and just spoke with her.

And so the federal bill, we need it to be heard.
