The Bethany Tribune Endorses David Holt

Today, in a front page, above-the-fold editorial, the Bethany Tribune strongly endorsed David Holt to be our next State Senator.  Calling David “a person known by so many of us for his character, his integrity, his willingness to serve, and his commitment to our values,” the Tribune wrote “We need David Holt in the Oklahoma State Senate.”

The full editorial can be found here.

Bethany Tribune on the Announcement

Here is The Bethany Tribune’s coverage of the announcement.

Announcement Day Visit to the Bethany Tribune

David, Barbara, Gloria and Nathan

One of the things I wanted to do on the day I announced was pay a visit to the Bethany Tribune.  The publisher, Gloria Quaid, is a former Putnam City School Board member, and my family has known her for many years.  She and her staff provide a very important public service.  As she said today, the Tribune is writing probably the only history that will ever be written for this community. 

So, I wanted to let them know how important I think they are in our community, and listen to their thoughts about the future of our state.  I spent a little over an hour this afternoon with Gloria, Barbara Anderson (a former Putnam City High School English teacher who taught with my dad), and Nathan Winfrey (no relation to Oprah) at the Tribune offices on 23rd Street.  It definitely won’t be our last such visit.
