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.

what was the importance of the trade in guns and horses among native americans on the plains for the cheyenne and their location
Tju [1.3M]

The Cheyenne were intermediaries in the commerce of horses between the tribal groups of the southern Plains and those of the north-central Plains.

Trade between tribes like Cheyenne of the Plains frequently consisted of exchanging hunting-related goods for agricultural goods like corn and squash. After the seventeenth century, European and American commodities including horses, weapons, and other metal goods were incorporated into the preexisting Plains commerce system. The Assiniboin, Hidatsa, Mandan, Arikara, and later some eastern Sioux groups mediated the trade of guns and other items like bedding, beads, fabric, and kettles that came from the British and French for pelts and buffalo robes from clusters to the west.

Consider what you know about segregation, then think about what conditions exist for minorities today. How have conditions chang
FinnZ [79.3K]

After segregation black people began to have the same rights as whites, not being separated by the color of their skins. Today, they can attend the same places as white people and theoretically have the same oputurnidades, since after segregation it was decided that we are all equal regardless of color

However, the prejudice remains the same and this minority continues to be discriminated by its color. This may be noted, when it is observed that blacks are still largely the poor and criminalized population, are the minority in universities, and there are few examples of blacks as executive leaders.
