UPDATED: April Fools Election Day

BatesLine ballot card for the April 1, 2025, school board and municipal election

This is a revised version of my list of recommendations. I changed my recommendation in House 71 based on some additional information about the candidates, which I explain in my pre-election article at BatesLine.com.

More details at BatesLine.com, but here’s the short version of my recommendations. As always some recommendations are more enthusiastic than others:

• Senate 8 Republican runoff: Bryan Logan (R)

• House 71 Republican primary: Heidemarie Fuentes (R)

• House 74 Republican primary: Maggie Stearman (R)

• Tulsa Public Schools Office 3: Dorie Simmons (D)

• Tulsa Technology Center Office 2: Todd Blackburn (R)

• Glenpool City Council, Ward 2: Kim Hanson-Mercier (R)

• Jenks City Council, Ward 6: Catherine Lenhart (R)

• Skiatook City Council, Ward 1: Matthew Bragg (R)

• Skiatook City Council, Ward 2: Patrick Young (R)

Feel free to forward. If you think I made the wrong call in any of these races or if there’s other information the voting public needs to know, drop me a line at blog AT batesline DOT com.

Thanks for reading!
