OKLAHOMA: Libertarian Republican favorite Randy Brogdon way behind in Governor’s race

From Eric Dondero:

Not so good news out of Oklahoma for Libertarian Republicans. State Senator Randy Brogdon, comes from the Constitutionalist wing of the GOP. He is a friend of the OK Libertarian Party, a member of Americans for Limited Government and an Advisory Board member for the Republican Liberty Caucus. But his campaign for Governor in the GOP primary, is struggling to get off the ground. A new poll finds Brogdon behind conservative Republican Mary Fallin by a significant margin.

Latest poll from the Tulsa World:

US Rep. Mary Fallin 68%
State Sen. Randy Brogdon 16%

Rep. Fallin is a staunch conservative, with an NTU score of 94. She has voted with her Republican colleagues in the House on 97% of all votes.

Some good news: The poll found Republican Fallin soundly beating expected Democrat nominee Drew Edmondson 51 to 39%.

Note - the Governor's Chair in Oklahoma is currently held by a Democrat.

Additional Note - Attorney General Edmondson, at the behest of the teachers unions and other liberal special interests, brought charges against libertarian activist and former Term Limits President Paul Jacob and two other Pro-Tax Cut initiative workers in 2006, for alleged wrongdoings in signature circulation. The charges were viewed as a highly partisan attack and were later dropped.
