Fly Over Country is your place for OK politics. And damn if Largent isn't going to lose. Wow. Not the most important race, but weird. Here's his report:




Largent lost this race for three reasons:

1) Most important reason, he ran a race that treated the Governorship as already his. Meaning, he didn't run a race. Brad Henry out hustled him.

2) The Independent/Crazy Guy, take your pick, drew votes from Largent.

3) The voting on the whether to ban cockfighting in OK. Southeastern/Eastern OK, where most of the cockfighting takes place is HEAVILY Democratic, and a lot of people got out to vote against the ban who probaly voted for Henry.

So, there's your instant analysis.
