Oklahoma Supreme Court 2018: Yes to Wyrick, no to the rest

Conservative political consultant Holly Gerard explains why she'll vote to retain State Supreme Court justice Patrick Wyrick:

Patrick Wyrick is my pick to retain - he has been flat-out fantastic. He argued successfully before the Supreme Court in support of the Repeal of Common Core when State School Board Members sued our state to force Common Core to stay in law after thousands of parents and teachers worked with the legislature and with huge bipartisan support in the legislature to repeal it with HB3399. Wyrick did a fantastic job and showed great knowledge in that - proud to vote to keep him on the Supreme Court. The Rest of the Supreme Court justices on the ballot all voted to remove the Ten Commandments from the Capitol grounds, not following other states precedent and now federal court precedent who are ruling that the Ten Commandments has significant historical bearing on our government's foundation and many areas (including our state) will be putting the Ten Commandments back on display - despite the efforts in the state Supreme Court to erase that part of our nation's foundational history.

Kenny Bob Tapp reminds us of the 9-0 decision (prior to Wyrick joining the court) to block an initiative petition to ban abortion. If the thinking of Justices Edmondson, Gurich, and Kauger is allowed to prevail, it would never be possible for Oklahoma to press a challenge to wrongly-decided U. S. Supreme Court decisions like Roe v. Wade. SCOTUS can't overturn a bad precedent unless a case reaches them, prompted by a law that contradicts that bad precedent.

I'm voting yes for Wyrick, no on the other three.
