Few people in Oklahoma know more about political history, trends and shenanigans than OU professor Keith Gaddie.
In this episode of the How We Got Here podcast, Gaddie leads FKG Consulting’s Bryan Fried and NonDoc editor in chief William W. Savage III in a discussion of the 1994 Republican wave election that helped shake up the course of Oklahoma politics for decades to come.
Discussing everything from the introduction of “morphing technology” in political ads to Oklahoma’s next redistricting rodeo, the podcast crew also examines factors affecting November’s important general election.
In addition, stay tuned for the episode’s “Easter egg,” which hearkens back to the 2006 tale of legendary political candidate Jim Lemons.
