Oklahoma Republican female voter reveals who she may vote for in Oklahoma’s 2nd US Congressional & Presidential election 2012. She’s leaning Dakota Woods & Markwayne Mullin for US congress; but since she had not seen all of the GOP candidates she said she could change her mind. But she did say that her liking for Mullin & Woods was because they seemed strong & forceful.
Voter says she prefers Rick Santorum for President, but since he’s unlikely to win GOP nomination, she said she’d probably vote for Mitt Romney. When asked about Newt, the voter strongly replied he was dirty, a big government progressive & lack morals & character. However, voter felt Mitt was not that conservative, but that she would chose him over Newt based on morals & character.
This interview was on January 31, 2012 in McAlester, OK at a GOP event held at Angel’s Diner.
I plan to do more video polling of Republican voters at forthcoming Oklahoma GOP events so as to get a feel for how GOP voters are leaning.
This will be an interesting primary season to follow. Romney is a liberal Republican courted by the media, and Gingrich has political baggage which will work against him. Many will hold their noses while voting this November.
It’s great that you are getting out there and talking to real people in your area, Arlene. As far as POTUS goes, I’m with this voter. Newt Gingrich is way too BIG GOVERNMENT and I do not trust him at all. While Mitt’s policies may not be very conservative, I believe he has integrity and lives by a moral (conservative) code. Unlike Newt, I don’t think there is any danger of Mitt making rash decisions. Newt, on the other hand, could have us entangled in debacles both domestically and abroad in a heartbeat. He is “my way or the highway” consequences be damned.
