House District-69 Medlock: Not so conservative?

Many people think that House district 69 candidate Chris Medlock is a true conservative. Yet that may not be the truth. Medlock worked as youth director at All Souls Church Unitarian Church in Tulsa. During his time he voiced opinion on several issues. One of those issues was abortion. He voiced his opinion on abortion that was similar to the views of liberal members. All Souls is known as one of the most liberal churches in Tulsa. He said something along the lines that he felt that a fetus meant little. Now Medlock calls himself a conservative. My, how people can change in a short period, or has he changed at all? Medlock while on the city council was resistant to the demands of business, typically something seen done more by liberal Democrats. It will be interesting to see in the legislature how Medlock will vote, if he gets elected. Medlock has backing from KFAQ's Michael DelGiorno, who is in a heap of trouble, with problems at Creek Nation Casino at 81st Street and Riverside Drive in Tulsa. It will be interesting to see Medlock faces Fred Jordan on Tuesday, he has received the endorsement of OKRA, that sounds tasty; and the Tulsa Beacon home of the cartoon Just Joe King (that is so lame). Jordan has out raised Medlock $92,274.31 to $15,348.50; but Medlock is well known and has been able to use grassroots campaigns effectively. It will be interesting to see how this campaign ends up.
