Letter to the Editor: Where’s the beef?

Up front, I am a registered Republican and have been so for most of my voting life. I have voted in every election in which I have been able to vote during my 65 years. I have lived in Oklahoma, California, Nevada, Hawaii and North Dakota.

I have never seen a more juvenile campaign by two Republicans than what I am seeing now in the race between incumbent U.S. Rep. John Sullivan and challenger Jim Bridenstine.

As the classic hamburger commercial once proclaimed: “Where’s the beef?”

Voting records are statistics and everyone knows that statistics are whatever the statistician wants them to be.

So in the next few days before the election, please tell us Okies, where’s the beef! We need to know what these candidates will do for you, me and Oklahoma in the future. Not what they have done in the past.
