Like in many other #Oklahoma towns, political hopefuls will file for candidacy in local races across the state.

For potential candidates in #LoneGroveOK, ward lines may change between the February filing deadline and the April 1 #elections

Qualifying for local elections in #ArdmoreOK #LoneGroveOK #HealdtonOK and #RatliffCityOK is over.

Out of 7 seats across the county up for election this year, only 2 will actually go to voters in April.

I managed to get a digitized copy of the #LoneGroveOK City Code today.

As it turns out, the only digital copy of their city code is 11 years old and the mayor told me major changes have been made to laws regarding tiny homes and medical marijuana since then.

When I asked the lone staff writer at my local newspaper when another reporter would be hired, he shrugged and told me he has the energy to be the only reporter in the county.

I'm sorry, my dude, but no amount of energy will get you to simultaneous school board meetings in #LoneGroveOK and #DicksonOK.

Because both of those school districts hold their monthly board meetings on the same day.
