Back in 2014, first-term State Superintendent Janet Barresi was very unpopular. In the Republican primary, she came in third out of three candidates, something that is quite shocking for an incumbent. The victor that primary, and later on in the general election, was Joy Hofmeister.
However, as time has elapsed since her first election, Hofmeister has increasingly revealed that she was not what she tried to pass herself off as in 2014. She fully supported the leftist education unions in their push for higher taxes, and the Department of Education under her leadership has advocated for social policies and curriculum that would absolutely shock many Oklahoma parents if they only knew.
Now, Hofmeister's long con is fully revealed. She is switching parties to run for Governor as a Democrat.
But never fear, she claims that "While I'm changing my party affiliation, I am not changing my values or who I am."
Oh really? That actually reveals more about her character than she intends to.
You see, either she's lying now, or she was lying back in 2014. I believe that her actions since 2014 indicate the latter to be true.
