[pp.int.general] USA pirates?

[Marcus Kesler]

None of the candidates endorses by the Pirate Party of Oklahoma (which
is a member of the USPP) won their respective races. But we had some
good results, especially considering that Independents have never done
well in Oklahoma.

    * Angelia O'Dell, US Representative, District 1: 23.19%
    * Clark Duffe, US Representative, District 5: 1.75%
    * Zachary Knight, State Representative, District 46: 19.7%
    * Edward Shadid, State Representative, District 85: 10.53%
