Although one poster mentioned it in passing, an overwhelmig part of OK's GOP trend is it's economy's overwhelming reliance on fossiol fuels. Remember, they actually have a functioning oil derrick on the statehouse lawn! I've often suspected it's kept running not so much for the reasons that a business engages in a business venture, and more for the same reason a dog pees on a tree.
Picture WV's & Easter KY's coal-based reaction against Obama, PLUS a voting popunlation that is more southern-based in culture, more fundamentalist, and even less hiistorically Democratic at the federal level (in the last 30 years at least). Then it somewhat makes sense.
