More Republican Member of the Oklahoma House, NOT RUNNING for Re-Election







It look like Two more Republican Member
of the Oklahoma House,
Will NOT be running for Re-Election !


They are X-Speaker Lance Cargill (Dist. 96, Harrah, Term Limited - 2012) and Dennis Adkins (Dist. 75, Tulsa, Term Limited - 2012)

The Two Big Question, being ask at the State Capitol are:

1) Why Now:

X-Speaker Cargill, not running for re-election is very easy to see. With Him stepping down as Speaker. Also a third party poll, show Cargill down by 6.5% running against a generic republican (The poll was taken after Cargill mail out, his 'I am Sorry' letter here or here)





The surprise is Dennis Adkins not running for re-election. Now Adkins has been in the news
here and here . But the question is why He is NOT running ?





2) What are
Cargill and Adkins going to do with all that cash they have on hand? Cargill has around $128,827.03 and Adkins has around $183,713.81 on hand.

And I have been told that more
Republican Member of the Oklahoma House, are thinking about not running for re-election this year.

If this is true can the GOP hold the House ?

And if they do, the
Republican House Caucus will look very different !
