Politician who attended Charlottesville white-supremacist rally faces recall

Pushback against Oklahoma's Judd Blevins transcending partisanship, says organizer: It's a Nazi and not-Nazi thing'

Voters in the north-west Oklahoma city of Enid are being asked to decide whether a councilmember who attended the deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 should be removed from his post.

Iraq war veteran Judd Blevins, 42, was elected to Enid's city council to be the commissioner of its first ward last year. He soon faced an effort by the Enid social justice committee, which claimed Blevins embraces the same Nazi ideology [the US] defeated almost 80 years ago" during the second world war.
