GOP VOTERS IN TOM COLES STOMPING GROUNDS SHOW ENTHUSIASM FOR CHALLENGER RJ HARRIS
PRIMARY WINNER WILL BE THE NEXT CONGRESSMAN

Congressional District 4 Candidate RJ Harris won over voters and party ocials at Friday, June 11s Cleveland
County Candidate Forum. Harris three minute speech was interrupted mulMple Mmes by enthusiasMc outbursts
from the crowd as he detailed his qualicaMons and reasons for running.

The response to incumbent Tom Cole, who spoke immediately before Harris, was far less enthusiasMc, although
polite. The reacMon is likely concerning for Cole, as the forum was held in his own town of Moore.

There was a surprising anM-incumbent senMment there, remarked poliMcal acMvist Kaye Beach. This senMment
likely explains Harris strong showing in the straw poll of 42% compared to Coles 58%. The poll was only a
preliminary indicator of aZendees senMments as it was taken prior to the speeches or one-on-one interacMons
with voters in a speed daMng format.

As I talked to voters during the speed round, many of them stated that they would have voted dierently if they
had been able to hear both speeches before the ballots were collected, stated Harris. Many wanted to know
about Harris impending deployment for the Afghanistan surge and were pleased to hear that he would denitely
remain in Oklahoma through the end of the primary.

RJ Harris looks forward to the next seven weeks of campaigning as more voters focus on July 27 and get to know
him and hear his message. The Fourth District race is likely to become a central focus of aZenMon by many as no
Democrat led to run for the seat. Therefore, the July 27 primary will determine who will be the next
Congressman.
