Sisters Sharon Vasquez and Deborah Martinez cancelled out each other’s votes for President. Sharon voted for Trump and Deborah voted for Biden. Do they avoid discussing politics? “No, we talk about it all the time,” says Deborah. “It’s called freedom of speech.”

"It's crucial that we continue to educate our youth to vote and seek leadership in tribal or state political positions." - David Walkingstick, former Councilmember of the Cherokee Nation.

The amazing @RepDebHaaland is @naja_ou ‘s first message on the critical connection between voting and indigenous communities. More to come!

[NAJA OU @naja_ou]

In 2002 Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota was relected by a razor thin 528 votes. The voter turnout from members of the Lakota tribe, which increased by nearly half, undoubtedly helped to push the incumbent over the top. It also inspired Congresswoman Deb Haaland.

With six days left until the Presidential Election 71.5 million ballots have already been filled, @RepDebHaaland reminded us of the importance of the Native vote during a one-on-one with OU NAJA.

From @HoganGore: When Pam Smith found out that her niece had been radio silent for hours, she started to worry. She called family, friends and finally local law enforcement in hopes of hearing good news, or any news at all. | https://t.co/2fxqZdNb9C | #Oklahoma

Minutes before Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg spoke at a town hall in Des Moines, Iowa, NBA star Kobe Bryant was killed in a helicopter crash. Gaylord News reporter @_andersonn1 caught Buttigieg’s reaction.

Students from OU’s journalism school are going to cover the Iowa caucuses.

Oklahomans, is there anything specific you’d like to see covered? Anything pertaining to the state/the Heartland that hasn’t been reported enough?

[Gaylord News @GaylordNews]

Gaylord News sat down with Senator Inhofe this morning to discuss the second impeachment vote of his career.
"...their findings were abuse of power and obstruction of congress. Well by definition those are not impeachable offenses...."
Full article will be released later today.
