Corporation Commission candidate Todd Hiett has the backing today of some conservative activists.
Hiett faces Senator Cliff Branan in the Republican primary.
The group issued this statement:
“As grassroots leaders in Oklahoma we have been closely watching the Corporation Commission race due to its direct impact on consumers. There is one clear choice in this race, and that is Todd Hiett. Cliff Branan has refused time and time again to debate with Todd Hiett on the issues – how can we support a candidate that won’t even show up? Todd has taken a strong stand to protect rates on consumers and we have not heard that same commitment from Branan – or really, we have not heard anything from him at all?
“We support Todd Hiett because he is not trying to win this race by having fancy dinners with donors in big cities, but he is traveling and meeting with grassroots groups all over the state. This election is too important to elect someone who will melt in the heat of pressure from Barack Obama and his EPA cronies. We know Todd Hiett will stand strong against the federal government and raising rates.”
