Question

Which political party dominated politics in Oklahoma Territory in part due to the number of black homesteaders who moved to the territory and gained fewer restrictions on their right to vote?

Answer 1

The Republican Party or the GoP as it is called has held sway over power in Oklahoma for the past several decades, the presence of the black homesteaders notwithstanding. Even in the 2016 Presidential poll, the Republican candidate Donald Trump managed to secure above 65% of the votes and Hillary Clinton was pushed to the background. While for a duration the voters in the state had voted differently for the state-level elections and for the elections to the national level Congress, the recent elections have seen only one party dominant party, the GoP.
