We're Moving! Same Building, New Suite.

On Monday, August 13, the Tulsa League will be in Suite 4 of the Granada Building. Our landlord made an offer we couldn'tLWV logo color box url refuse and  we think you'll like the new space as much as we do. Our new office is still easily accessible from the main parking lot; it's just a few offices to the west, closer to the library. We'll plan an open house to celebrate in September.

All our contact information will stay the same, but our address will be slightly different:
3336 E. 32nd St., Suite 4., Tulsa, 74135.
League-Arranged Forum in SD 33 Run-Off is August 14  

 

Vote Smart! On Tuesday, Aug. 14, the two Republican candidates for Oklahoma Senate District 33 will meet in a forum we've arranged. The forum will be held at 6:30 p.m. in a meeting room at the Broken Arrow Library at 300 W. Broadway. The run-off election is on August 28. The winner will become the new State Senator for most of Broken Arrow and far-South Tulsa County, as well as parts of Southeast Tulsa. The candidates for SD33 are Nathan Dahm and Tim Wright.  

 

Thank you Connie Seibold and new member Barbara Purtell who made this happen. Only Republicans can vote in the election, but all residents of the newly-drawn Senate District have a stake in this election. Please attend and support our efforts to inform Tulsa-area voters.
