无政治经验的护士恩基拉·贾斯敏·托马斯击败四名对手，将在11月与众议员凯文·赫恩对决

一名政坛新人刚刚在深红州俄克拉荷马州取得胜利，如果当选，她将全力以赴弹劾唐纳德·特朗普总统。
恩基拉·贾斯敏·托马斯是一名从未竞选过公职的护士，在俄克拉荷马州民主党参议院提名的 runoff选举中击败了律师兼非营利组织高管吉姆·普里斯特。尽管托马斯政坛新人，但她在6月初选的五名候选人角逐中获得了最高得票率。
这将开启一场对抗俄克拉荷马州历史的竞选，该州三十多年来从未选出过民主党籍参议员。

托马斯在其竞选网站上列出了一系列政策主张，包括提高教师薪资、恢复《罗伊诉韦德案》、扩大奥巴马医改等典型民主党提案，同时她还希望在参议院生涯初期完成一项目标：弹劾特朗普。
上个月在接受NPR下属电台KOSU采访时，托马斯被问及共和党提名候选人、俄克拉荷马州联邦众议员凯文·赫恩对特朗普的“狂热”支持，以及如果当选，她将如何与总统建立工作关系。
“正如我所说，我为人友善，但不会一味妥协。我会尽最大努力确保在就职前100天内完成弹劾、罢免和定罪，”托马斯说。“除非把我的笔从我冰冷僵硬的手中夺走，否则我绝不会任由本届政府继续胡作非为。”

“所以，我的意思是，希望这个回答还算令人满意，”她继续说道。“但我就是要罢免、弹劾、罢免并定罪。仅此而已。这就是我的答案。”
首先，她必须在11月的选举日击败赫恩，考虑到特朗普2024年在俄克拉荷马州以近35个百分点的优势获胜，这将是一项艰巨的任务。
尽管托马斯完成了两次逆袭：首次角逐民主党提名时获得了约45%的选票，随后又击败了同样无政治经验的普里斯特，但赫恩情况截然不同。

赫恩目前筹集了可观的竞选资金，本选举周期内一度达到近1000万美元。而托马斯仅筹集了不到6万美元。
他还获得了特朗普的背书，并宣扬自己致力于推进总统最重要的政策优先事项——《拯救美国法案》。
赫恩在给福克斯新闻数字频道的一份声明中表示，俄克拉荷马州民众“热爱特朗普总统和美国优先议程”。
“像恩基拉·贾斯敏·托马斯这样的社会主义民主党人与俄克拉荷马州民众的价值观以及他们希望国家前进的方向完全脱节，”赫恩说。“特朗普总统和共和党人专注于取得实际成果。恩基拉·贾斯敏·托马斯和激进左翼却专注于针对俄克拉荷马州绝大多数民众选出的总统搞党派政治。”

Democratic newcomer scores runoff upset in Oklahoma, vows to impeach Trump if elected

A political newcomer just scored a victory in ruby-red Oklahoma, and, if elected, she would put all her energy into impeaching President Donald Trump.
N’Kiyla Jasmine Thomas, a nurse who has never run for office before, bested Jim Priest, a lawyer and nonprofit executive, in the runoff race for the Democratic Senate nomination in Oklahoma. Thomas, though a new face, scored the highest percentage of votes in the June primary contest that featured five total candidates vying for the nomination.
It tees up a battle against history in Oklahoma, where voters haven’t sent a Democrat to the Senate in more than three decades.

And Thomas, who lists a host of policy proposals on her campaign website, including beefing up teacher pay, restoring Roe v. Wade, and expanding Obamacare, among other boilerplate Democratic proposals, also wants to accomplish one thing in the early days of her Senate career: impeaching Trump.
During an interview with NPR affiliate KOSU last month, Thomas was asked about the Republican nominee, Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., and his “fierce” backing of Trump, and how, if elected, she would approach a working relationship with the president.
“Like I said, I’m kind, not nice. So I will make sure that I work as diligently as I can to make sure that within my first 100 days that we impeach, remove and convict,” Thomas said. “They will have to pry that pen out of my cold, dead hands before I go any further with allowing this administration to continue doing what they’re doing.”

“So, I mean, hopefully that’s a good answer,” she continued. “But I am going to remove, impeach, remove and convict. That’s it. Like that’s all. That’s the answer.”
First, she’d have to survive Election Night in November against Hern, a tall task given that Trump won Oklahoma by nearly 35 points in 2024.
Though Thomas has pulled off two underdog performances, earning roughly 45% of the vote during her first go-round for the Democratic nomination and then defeating Priest with no political experience, Hern is a different matter.

He’s amassed an impressive campaign war chest that at one point peaked at nearly $10 million so far this cycle. Thomas, however, has raised just shy of $60,000.
He also boasts the endorsement of Trump and has touted his desire to pass the president’s biggest policy priority, the SAVE America Act.
Hern noted in a statement to Fox News Digital that Oklahomans “love President Trump and the America First Agenda.”

“Socialist Democrats like N’Kiyla Jasmine Thomas are wildly out of touch with the values of Oklahomans and the direction they want our country moving toward,” Hern said. “President Trump and Republicans are focused on delivering results. N’Kiyla Jasmine Thomas and the radical left are focused on partisan politics against a president Oklahomans overwhelmingly elected.”
