Thanks for being a critical thinker. Admittedly, my only source is from a rather obscure Republican woman, Leisa Mitchell Haynes, who is running for governor of Oklahoma. She talked of a shortage of highway patrol troopers during her speech before a meeting of Payne County Republicans over a month ago. I can no longer find a recording of that meeting, which I had originally found of the FB page of the Chairman of Payne County Republicans. She also said the Oklahoma panhandle may not even have any highway patrol troopers.
Elsewhere, she has said God told her in third grade that she would be a governor. For now, God sent an angel to her last August to say, "Now is the time. Write your plan and get ready". It will be interesting to see if this person who is hearing things comes in last place in the 2026 primary.
