In order to be elected governor, any gubernatorial candidate is required to obtain a statewide plurality of votes cast in their election. Given the dominance of the two-party system in Oklahoma (between the Democrats and the Republicans), the plurality is often a majority as well. However, in case the event that two or more candidates have an equal number of votes, the state legislature, by joint ballot, elects one of those candidates governor.

The constitution names the governor the state's chief magistrate and vested in him the supreme executive power. As a consequence, the governor is the preeminent figure in Oklahoma politics. Though he or she shares power with many other executive officers, in the event of a vacancy anywhere in the executive branch, he or she appoints their successor. The governor appoints the heads of state departments and agencies as well as the members of most state commissioners and boards. However, these appointments do require Senate approval. Some serve at his or her pleasure while others serve fixed terms.

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Explanation:

New inventions made it faster and less expensive to produce goods.   Fast production because of the new inventions made the products get on the shelves of stores in high quantities quickly so they made a larger profit.  These machines made it much cheaper because they were so efficient.

The Industrial Revolution changed the way that goods are produced and gave birth to mass production, by the division of labor and the increasing prevalence of machines in factories. People and society were changed as an impact of mass production and the evolvement of factories.
