<v Speaker 2>to be a lot of fun. An old fashioned watch party.

38
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:34.439
<v Speaker 2>I can't really call it an old fashion watch party

39
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:36.879
<v Speaker 2>because we're using a lot of modern technology.

40
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:38.040
<v Speaker 1>We're going to be wired.

41
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:40.079

<v Speaker 4>And no matter which news station you prefer to watch,

43
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.799
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure that some TV will be hooked up to.

00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:49.400
<v Speaker 1>It so you can be get your flavor of choice.

45
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:49.959
<v Speaker 3>Your flavor of.

46
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:52.519
<v Speaker 4>Choice, that's right. And we're not just talking about the nationals.

47
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:54.840
<v Speaker 4>We got some local elections here, yes we do. We

48
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:56.640
<v Speaker 4>will get those results coming in as well.

49
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.480
<v Speaker 2>We have the city council that we do, yes, And

50
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:01.879

00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:16.279
<v Speaker 2>I tell everybody a little bit about the Republican and

94
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:18.519
<v Speaker 2>other Conservatives of Washington County.

95
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:21.480
<v Speaker 1>They've been hearing the name yes and and some of.

96
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:24.480
<v Speaker 2>Them said, well, yeah, it sounds nice, but what really

97
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:26.519
<v Speaker 2>what are y all about?

98
00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:31.439
<v Speaker 4>We're an association of Republicans and other conservatives, not limiting

99
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.680
<v Speaker 4>it to just the Republican side of things, but with

100
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:38.160
<v Speaker 4>like minded individuals. We hold monthly meetings at crossing second

101
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:41.439
<v Speaker 4>six point thirty and the first Tuesday of every month.

102
00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:46.920
<v Speaker 4>We have had an exciting year and we've had wonderful speakers.

103
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.800
<v Speaker 4>We had westnow Fire last month, Brian Bingman. We have

104
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:54.120
<v Speaker 4>had the Lieutenant governor here before, and it seems that

105
00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:57.000
<v Speaker 4>this year was a lot of learning about Washington County

106
00:04:57.000 --> 00:04:59.199
<v Speaker 4>and Bartlesville in general. We had the ad to Z

107
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.959
<v Speaker 4>City manager Mike Bailey spoke with us and Yvonne House

108
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:10.399
<v Speaker 4>about the election integrity, which was extremely informative. To make

109
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:12.560
<v Speaker 4>sure we do it well here, nobody, we do it

110
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:13.439
<v Speaker 4>very well.

111
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:14.839
<v Speaker 3>We do it very well.

112
00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:17.800
<v Speaker 4>They have got it down, and I mean you can

113
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.680
<v Speaker 4>double check things and they cross all their t's and

114
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:21.399
<v Speaker 4>dot their eyes.

115
00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:26.920
<v Speaker 2>I've been hearing in so many different states the scanner's

116
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:30.759
<v Speaker 2>not working or my screen is jumping.

117
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Well, we have paper ballots.

118
00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:34.639
<v Speaker 3>We don't have to worry about that. In Washington County,

119
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:35.759
<v Speaker 3>we do not.

120
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:37.720
<v Speaker 1>We cannot happen.

121
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:40.480
<v Speaker 4>Cast our vote and rest assured that it is properly counted.

122
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:45.079
<v Speaker 2>And nobody tries to set ballot boxes on fire because

123
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:47.680
<v Speaker 2>we don't have them hanging out there on the corner

124
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:56.439
<v Speaker 2>unchecked for people can just stop. That's his integrity, right,

125
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:58.000
<v Speaker 2>but that's other states.

126
00:05:57.720 --> 00:05:59.360
<v Speaker 1>That's not us. Not us.

127
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:02.560
<v Speaker 3>Oklahoma is more than just okay. We're a pretty good place.

128
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:06.160
<v Speaker 2>To live now outside of this big watch party. Well,

129
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:07.920
<v Speaker 2>you have monthly meetings, tell us about it.

130
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:08.319
<v Speaker 3>We do.

131
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:10.680
<v Speaker 4>Our monthly meetings are held on the first Tuesday of

00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.519
<v Speaker 4>the meeting, and it's open to anybody.

136
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:29.079
<v Speaker 3>This is you do not have to be a Republican.

137
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:32.480
<v Speaker 4>You do not have to be registered as a Conservative

138
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:34.879
<v Speaker 4>any sort to vote or to be a part of

139
