A big congratualations to Blake for soundly winning this race and running an upbeat and positive campaign.  I'm new to District 4, but felt we were going to get a significant improvement no matter which candidate won.  Now the hard work begins.

Same here. Glad to see the election was pretty much uneventful and evenhanded. Hope the council is run the same way. I agonized over voting against a democrat, a vet, a guy with three degrees and obviously capable in favor of a grounded, young, entrepreneurial, republican. My wife said, "you think too much. Vote for the pizza guy." So, I did.
onward...through the fog

Look who missed out on the winning campaign slogan.

Welcome to the dark side. ;D

It will take more than one vote to get that access.

I wouldn't.  He apparently is a bad judge.

QuoteIf Blake is my councilor I can't see myself ever reaching out to him for help...I wouldn't want to add to his already full plate. I wouldn't mind calling Brune off of his bike or daily jog to check a zoning violation complaint though.

Call me if you need anything. My plate never stays full for long. Also, you can count on me to avoid filling up my schedule with things like daily jogs and bike rides. =)

Thanks to you all for your support over the years, both in my businesses and in the City Council race. Please feel free to communicate with me, either here, on facebook, or e-mail about issues related to either. I'll keep working on getting better, but it helps to have your input, feedback, and advice.

Congratulations, Blake.  Still not sure why you would want a thankless job like city councilor, but I'm glad there are people like you who are willing to do it.

I don't know you personally but I was pulling for you all the way. Now this is how a City Councilor should respond to the people of Tulsa.
Changing opinions one mistake at a time.

Blake, will your ability to blog candidly about the inner goings of the city council change now that you have been elected? Your campaign blog was refreshingly honest and forthright and I hope that doesn't change now that you have been elected. If not, will you continue posting to your blog or will you use another method? Congrats on the win!
