OKGOP Stifles Research Efforts of Grassroots Journalists

Why is a conservative research being smeared as an unsafe web link?

  With the new administration of the OKGOP still setting up it's team, a few conservative journalists, including SoonerPolitics founder, David Van Risseghem; put together a research team to begin a series of surveys. We sought the expertise and advice of some former lawmakers and party leaders, to help us.
  The surveys are scheduled to run over a few months and will give a more clear understanding of the values & priorities of the grassroots participants who attend party conventions as representatives of their precincts. 

  When Bob Dani was announced as Chairman Bennett's Executive Director, Dani asked that all correspondence with Bennett "goes through me, and that's just how it's gunna be.". So one of the journalists with the "Unite With Trump" research project talked with Dani late in May, in great detail about the surveys and committed to share the findings with the OKGOP leadership.  Chairman Bennett later said the info will be very helpful to him. No objections were expressed at any time. Bennett was told last October that some of those supporting his run for OKGOP Chairman, were forming a policy group under the name of Unite With Trump.

Miles Rahimi, OKGOP Communications Director

  But when the survey was launched in the latter half of June, the designated 'Communications Director', Miles Rahimi, went to Bennett directly and sought immediate approval to send out a mass email to urge party leaders across the state to avoid the survey.  Rahimi made no email inquiry, nor did Rahimi appear to jog Dani's memory.  It seems Rahimi (a holdover from the McLain Administration, was just about the only part of the Bennett leadership team who'd not been personally introduced to the Unite With Trump project.

  As a political ally of David McLain, Rahimi would not have been part of any grassroots statewide effort to replace him.  What's odd is that when a different group sent out a pre-convention survey about electronic voting at the OKGOP Convention, no similar email warning was sent out by any member of the McLain Administration?  

Does The OKGOP want to suppress it's members from talking about values?

  Last Sunday I got a call from Chairman Bennett.  He apologized for the harm done to our research and said he had no idea that it was coming from the very people who encouraged his candidacy last fall(Unite With Trump).  I take Bennett at his word and asked him to publicly correct the record. He said he's need to get back to me the next day about that.  On Monday he said he'd get back to me on Tuesday. I then sent him a suggested draft of what I felt was the essential points I need, so that the party grassroots leaders would once again feel it safe to participate..... crickets...
  It's now Thursday afternoon. I have several questions and I'm avoiding some very troubling conclusions. 

1. Some folks seem to want to control communications between the grassroots OKGOP delegates.
2. Some folks seem threatened by research findings about the values and priorities of the OKGOP delegates.
3. Some folks don't seem to follow proper protocols for diligent fact-finding before publishing dire 'warning's of dangerous websites (it's a Google Forms survey, on google's highly secure servers, in Pryor, OK)

Here's the survey, on the Google Docs secure platform.
