Spellcheck is not his friend...

Wow, guy needs a spelling and vocabulary tutor.  His campaign will probably turn out like this...

It's not quite a reincarnation of Accountability Burns.  Yet....

[AquaMan]

No, Burns had good intentions/motivations. He was mentally in a different world than the rest of us. Seemed really smart when you met him. But his language was like computer code.

Good lord.

"So if someone wants to get on here and rag on me, because you send a remark or a question that made no sense, Shoot your best shot. Now after the remark was deleted because it made no sense, I personally asked what the issue was...If that's the way you feel so be it. However, we still don't understand your question, I would be more than willing to answer the question, If I knew what the question was. All I got out of it before I deleted it was something about standing on a porch and stabbing someone in the back..."

The FB page says he has 199 followers. One hundred and ninety nine people in Tulsa (or is it Tusla?) who have issues themselves.

Do you have to live in the district to run for the council position?

Yes

In Tulsa, a candidate has to be a resident of the district for 90 days before filing for city council. Oddly, to file for Mayor you must live in the city on the day of filing alone. Other cities vary widely. It is 0 days in Wichita, 183 days in Oklahoma City, Kansas City, and Ft Worth. In Denver, St. Louis and most bigger cities, it is 365 days of established residency before filing for city council.

Many cities have longer residency for Mayor than city council. In Denver and St. Louis, it is twice as long and in Kansas City it is four times as long (two years versus six months).

I'm beginning to miss District 5 already.  SMH.

Oh, and he also has a GoFundMe account which is asking for donations to his campaign. To date he has collected $0. I wonder how long before drops out due to "his poor health".

Can we please delete this post or move it to a more applicable forum? This has nothing to do with "Development & New Businesses" and is annoying seeing it continue to be renewed to the top of this forum.

I have no interest in this guy or what he is running for.

Good info. Has anyone here every ran for office?

[RecycleMichael]

I have not, but have had family run for everything from school board to county commissioner to city council.

If you want to run in the future, reach out to me and I can offer some advice.
