OK has a run-off if no one gets to 50%+1, and I think that Shannon (whom I support) will have a better chance of overcoming Lankford’s establishment and Baptist endorsements and deeper pockets in the lower-turnout run-off than in the regular primary (particularly since conservatives would have more time to point out Lankford’s less-than-exemplary record). I haven’t seen recent polls, but I suspect that Lankford is ahead but is under 50%. So I think that Brogdon staying in the race and getting his people to the polls will help conservatives stop Lankford from reaching the Senate.
I agree.
At first I was like.. oh crap! But now I’m thinking him jumping in may actually help TW.
Here’s my next question.
WHEN would that runoff be held?
Immediately? Or would they wait for the November mid terms?
We should really get the runoff system in place in every state.
