Crazed Banana Slicer Takes Lead in Gubernatorial Race!

I have good news for transphobic people who like fruit salad and bad metaphors.

Earlier this week, gubernatorial candidate Charles McCall did what every ambitious Oklahoma politician eventually does — he bought himself a poll that says he’s winning.

Via News 9:

Recent polling shows a possible new Republican Party front-runner in the race for Governor of Oklahoma.

A new poll conducted by Stratus Intelligence shows Oklahoma House of Representatives Speaker Charles McCall leads Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond by 8 points in a head-to-head matchup.

The polling, paid for by Charles McCall for Governor, shows McCall leading at 45%, with Drummond trailing behind at 37%.

I’m not smart enough to know what’s going to happen in the Governor’s race – I still think there’s a chance we have a surprise candidate – but I am smart enough to know never to trust a poll released by an official campaign.
