'Murphy is the right leader at the right time on energy issues'

Edmond, OK) Today Republican Corporation Commission candidate Dana Murphy received endorsements from three more of Oklahoma's most respected Congressional leaders.

"I am honored and humbled that these great Oklahoma leaders are endorsing me along with the earlier endorsements of Congresswoman Mary Fallin and U.S. Senators Jim Inhofe and Tom Coburn," said Murphy. "In critical economic times these leaders all recognize that we need the most qualified, experienced Oklahoman to help lead our state on energy issues, someone who will be a watchdog for everyday Oklahomans."

Congressman Tom Cole: "I've known Dana Murphy for a long time and seen first-hand her work ethic and the depth of her character in dealing with tough issues. Her energy, drive and determination to do what's best for Oklahoma proved to me that she is worthy of your vote on November 4th. As a 5th generation Oklahoman, she is committed to our State and our conservative Oklahoma values. Her 20 years of experience in the oil and gas industry as a geologist and energy attorney, along with her six years experience as an administrative law judge on the Corporation Commission are unmatched. With such critical times in the energy sector, we need someone with Dana's experience and credentials to step up and hit the ground running for us. Dana is the right leader at the right time for Oklahoma."

Congressman Frank Lucas - "As someone who lives in rural Oklahoma, I am excited to see my friend Dana Murphy running for Corporation Commission. Dana knows the issues important to farmers and ranchers across our state. I know she'll be a watchdog for the best interests of all Oklahomans. We can trust her as someone like us, a hard-working Oklahoman who is the real deal. Oklahomans deserve a Corporation Commissioner who has hands-on experience in the oil and gas industry and understands the issues related to both mineral owners and producers. Dana has 20 years of experience in the energy industry and almost six years as a law judge for the Corporation Commission. No one else comes close to matching her qualifications for this very important office."

Congressman John Sullivan: "Dana Murphy will follow a long line of honest, hard working Republicans to serve at the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. We need her enthusiasm, expertise and education to help move Oklahoma into a new era of energy exploration. Dana has joined me in recognizing the needs for an 'all of the above' energy solution. She recognizes what Oklahoma must do to stay on the leading edge of energy exploration."

Metro Area Republican Leaders Stand Up for Dana Murphy

Saturday, 01 November 2008 23:33

(Oklahoma City, OK) Led by Co-President Pro Tempore of the State Senate Glenn Coffee, metro area legislators joined Republican Corporation Commission candidate Dana Murphy for a press conference Friday, October 31st, 2008, at 9 a.m.

Coffee was joined by Senator Randy Brogden and County Assessor Leonard Sullivan. Also endorsing Murphy, but not in attendance were: Senators Todd Lamb, Cliff Aldridge, Clark Jolley, Mike Johnson, Cliff Branan; State Representatives Paul Wesselhoft, Kris Steele, Colby Schwartz, Ken Miller, David Derby, Rob Johnson, Marian Cooksey, Gary Banz, Mike Reynolds, Sally Kern, Mike Thompson, Guy Liebmann, former Representative Thad Balkman; Edmond Mayor Dan O'Neil and former Edmond Mayor Saundra Naifeh.

"We know how important the office of Corporation Commissioner is to our state," says Coffee. "The Corporation Commission directly affects the pocketbooks of all Oklahomans. We all agree that this most important seat cannot go to some bureaucrat who is nothing more than the lapdog of special interest groups. That's why all of us believe electing Dana Murphy to the Corporation Commission is so vital to Oklahoma's best interests."

"With her vast experience in oil and gas – Oklahoma's number one industry; her six years of experience as a law judge at the Commission; her strong Oklahoma values and common sense approach to all issues, we know that she will always do what's best for all Oklahomans."

"We encourage everyone to cast a vote for Oklahoma's energy future by voting for Dana Murphy on November 4th."

Murphy is the Best Choice for Corporation Commission
Her experience is needed in these critical economic times

(Eastern, Oklahoma) Speaker of the House Chris Benge; Senators Bill Brown, Brian Bingman, Randy Brogdon, David Myers; Representatives John Wright, Pam Peterson, Daniel Sullivan, Skye McNiel, Dale DeWitt and David Derby issued a joint statement endorsing Dana Murphy for Corporation Commission

We are proud to stand together and endorse Dana Murphy for Corporation Commission. Dana is one of the most ethical, hard working people we know. Her 20 years of real world oil and gas experience coupled with her six years serving our state as a law judge at the Commission give her qualifications for the job unmatched by her opponent.

In these uncertain economic times, we need a proven leader, someone who knows the job and can make a positive impact on the lives of all Oklahomans. We need a real watchdog on the Commission, someone who will look out for the best interests of all Oklahomans, not just a special few. We know Dana Murphy is that person.

We ask all Oklahomans to vote for our future by voting for Dana Murphy on November 4th.

FOR CORPORATION COMMISSIONER -- Jeff Cloud definitely for reelection. And Dana Murphy, 6-year legal officer for the Commission, for the short term. Dana and her opponent Jim Roth, appointed by the Governor, are both well qualified but I chose Dana for her extra years of experience there.

We encourage voters to return Jeff Cloud to a second term on the state Corporation Commission.

We also encourage a vote for Dana Murphy, replacing the man who currently holds a seat on the commission.

Cloud has done a commendable job in his first term. There is no reason to replace him.

Norman Transcript: Murphy and Cloud endorsed for Corporation Commission

Voters statewide will have a chance to select two members of the Oklahoma Corporation Commission Tuesday. Earlier this year, we endorsed Dana Murphy of Edmond for the short-term seat. We repeat that endorsement. We believe Ms. Murphy is the most qualified to sit on the commission. She has seen the commission from three sides: As a private attorney representing oil and gas clients, as a geologist working in the state's oilpatch and as a Commission administrative law judge.

Fallin says Dana Murphy's Character and Qualifications above Reproach

Wednesday, 29 October 2008 10:24

(Oklahoma City, OK) Congresswoman Mary Fallin today praised Corporation Commission candidate Dana Murphy as a woman of outstanding character and ethics.

"Dana Murphy is one of the most ethical people I know," said Fallin. "Dana is a devoted Christian woman deeply committed to her family and to Oklahoma. We should be proud that someone with her experience, deep love for our state and above all, deep moral commitment to do the right thing every time, wants to serve us as a Corporation Commissioner."

"Dana has the experience, the commitment and the determination to serve Oklahoma well. I can't think of a better, more qualified person to be a watchdog for all Oklahomans on the Corporation Commission"

Fallin says she is disappointed by the recent attacks on Murphy's character.

"Oklahomans deserve to hear a real and honest debate about the issues and how each candidate plans to address the important policy decisions made at the Corporation Commission. During these uncertain times, voters need to know which candidate will best understand their concerns and represent their values. I believe Dana is the person we want making the decisions that impact our daily lives."

"Dana's understanding of the issues facing our state is second to none and I know she will be a tireless advocate for the people of Oklahoma."

"This has been a tough campaign, but I hope come Election Day, voters will look beyond the rhetoric and baseless attacks and select the person who will best serve their interests as Corporation Commission. There is no doubt in my mind that person is Dana Murphy."

Edmond Life & Liesure: Fallin, Murphy Top our Preferences

Wednesday, 29 October 2008 09:44

First and foremost we proudly endorse returning Congresswoman Mary Fallin to office. As our representative for the 5th Congressional District in Oklahoma, she has proven herself by continuing to take her constituents view point and values to Washington, D.C. She has been a friend for over 22 years but our endorsement of Fallin is because of the loyalty and friendship she has shown not only Edmond and the 5th District but the entire state of Oklahoma. She has served Oklahoma with distinction and honor. We encourage you to join us and cast your vote for Mary Fallin for the United States Congress.

We strongly endorse Dana Murphy for Oklahoma Corporation Commission. She is an Edmond gal, smart and most of all highly qualified for the office. If you compare the resumes of the two candidates, it is no contest. Dana Murphy wins it hands down over Jim Roth, the Democrat in the race. In fact, it is not even close. I also have to add that it is disappointing to see Jim Roth stoop to such pathetic tactics in his campaign advertising. It must be a sign of panic by the advisors to his campaign. I had always had a great amount of respect for Roth when he served as an Oklahoma County Commissioner. However, it appears he is just another career politician willing to stoop to anything to win an election. We urge you to vote for Murphy in this race.

Inhofe Says Dana Murphy Essential to Oklahoma's Energy Success

Wednesday, 29 October 2008 09:41

(Edmond, OK) United States Senator Jim Inhofe today said electing Dana Murphy as the state's next Corporation Commissioner is vital if Oklahoma is to grow as an energy leader for our nation in the coming years.

"The energy industry is the backbone of Oklahoma's economy. Dana has 20 years experience in the oil and gas industry and almost six years as a law judge for the Corporation Commission. With a host of energy issues facing our state in the coming years, we need Dana's expertise and experience on the Commission."

"Dana's qualifications for this position are unmatched. Her private sector experience and unmatched credentials make her the most qualified candidate for Oklahoma Corporation Commissioner. I have no doubt she will serve with integrity and promote the best interests of our state."

"Oklahoma needs leaders like Dana Murphy. I encourage everyone to get out and vote for her on November 4."

Dana has 20 years experience in the oil patch as a geologist and attorney and six years as a law judge at the Corporation Commission. This gives her unmatched qualifications and the experience we need in these times of critical energy issues facing our State.
