- Description:
- Political currents are churning in Oklahoma, with key figures such as Governor McNair and Senator Harris making moves on both national and local levels. There is also a focus on the role of women in politics, with LaDonna Harris and Mrs. Key actively involved in political activities. The turnover in patronage after the Republican Presidential victory is impacting families and creating competition for jobs. Senator Bellmon and other Republicans are facing challenges from Democratic Senators with heavy seniority. Overall, the political landscape in Oklahoma is complex and competitive.
