Democratic State Rep. Joe Dorman Forms Committee for a run for GovernorJust saw him on Rachel Maddow and he apparently wants to make his main issue to focus on attacking the Republican Governor for their unwillingness to implement storm shelters in to Oklahoma schools. If I were him though, I might also focus on Governor Fallin's recent attacks on benefits to gay members of the military. Same-sex marriage is obviously very unpopular in the state I presume, but he could gain support from Republicans in the state on the military aspect of it.
This will mean the Democratic primary in Oklahoma could shockingly have two combatants if Dorman runs since R.J. Harris who is a former congressional candidate is also running for the nomination. If I were to guess, Dorman will end up getting the nomination because despite not even having declared yet, he's already gaining a lot of support from moderate, anti-Fallin voters.
And if I'm correct, Brad Henry unfortunately can't run until 2018 because he would obviously be the best hope Oklahoma Democrats have at winning here. As for Dorman though, although there's no polling done here, Fallin should still be able to win pretty handily.
