The Keeler Political Report was founded in May 2004 by Ben Keeler, a conservative voice for all Americans. The site began as a supplement to the wildly popular Keeler Report newsletter, and it has evolved into a daily must visit site for both political junkies and casual observers inside and outside the Beltway. The site headquarters are now based in Akron, Ohio after being founded in Statesboro, Georgia. The Keeler Report had a better prediction night on November 2, 2004 than all of the paid experts, correctly picking the Bush reelection and calling 48 of 50 states correctly, along with all but one of the contested Senate races.
In the summer of 2004, the Keeler Report picked up a liberal rival, The Chief Source, based in Akron, Ohio as well. The readers of The Chief Source are many of the same readers who read The Keeler Report. We encourage readers of all political backgrounds to check out what we have to offer and then make an informed decision as to whether or not you become a regular visitor. Most people become regular readers, either because they agree with what they see, because they claim to not agree with it but know it is really true, or they just hate the opinions of the site so much they have to keep coming back everyday and adding their sarcastic and spiteful comments to the dialogue.
In March 2005, Robert J. Turkley came on board The Keeler Political Report as the IT Director, and he has led the site through an extensive overhaul which is ongoing. Turkley has also been known to post occasionally. He is a self described "Reagan Democrat" who voted for George W. Bush in 2004. The recently married Turkley is a resident of Bratenahl, Ohio and enjoys computer games and cruising the town in his classic red Mustang. Turkley signed a new 2 year deal that will keep him with the KPR through at least December 2008.
June 2007 brought a brand new website design and new responsibilities. KPR was selected to be one of four administrators of the revamped Ohio Blog Carnival, a weekly roundup of Ohio bloggers discussing political happenings in the state. In January 2008, Ben Keeler became one of two co-authors of the new Akron Beacon Journal political website, The Point.
The Keeler Political Report continues to grow and add readers on a weekly basis. Although it is still awhile until the 2008 Presidential Election, the Keeler Report has not taken time off. Please continue to visit this site and it's sponsors to allow the great content to continue on through 2008 and future elections.
