About me:

Voting couldn't be more important. The Legislators we elect make decisions that impact the ability of Oklahoma’s companies to compete and grow. This affects all of us – our jobs, our economy, and our families’ future...

The Prosperity Project is a great election resource to help you:

  • Register To Vote
  • Be informed – Learn about candidates running for Congress and State.
  • Legislature in your district - and where they say they stand on economic issues that matter.
  • Vote on Election Day

    The Prosperity Project is a nonpartisan, election education service. It does not endorse candidates and does not tell you how to vote. That important decision is up to you.

    The Prosperity Project represents more than 1,300 leading Oklahoma companies and their employees who want to be informed on economic issues that matter before we go to the polls.

    We are a partnership of large, medium and small businesses, The State Chamber of Oklahoma, and more than 100 local chambers of commerce and trade associations that are dedicated to helping Oklahomans "vote smart" on Election Day.

      It has only been 88 years since HALF of the citizens of our nation were granted the right to have a voice in their own government. Don't let these heroic womens' tribulations be in vain. VOTE! Encourage others to do so. And not just during Presidential elections. All elections are important. Please pass this on.



      WHY WOMEN SHOULD VOTE

      This is the story of our Grandmothers and Great-grandmothers; they lived only 90 years ago.





      Remember, it was not until 1920 that women were granted the right to go to the polls and vote.



      The women were innocent and defenseless, but they were jailed nonetheless for picketing the White House, carrying signs asking for the vote.





      And by the end of the night, they were barely alive.


      Forty prison guards wielding clubs and their warden's blessing went on a rampage against the 33 women wrongly convicted of 'obstructing sidewalk traffic.

      '



      (Lucy Burns)
      They beat Lucy Burns, chained her hands to the cell bars above her head and left her hanging for the night, bleeding and gasping for air.





      (Dora Lewis)
      They hurled Dora Lewis into a dark cell, smashed her head against an iron bed and knocked her out cold. Her cellmate, Alice Cosu, thought Lewis was dead and suffered a heart attack.



      Additional affidavits describe the guards grabbing, dragging, beating, choking, slamming, pinching, twisting and kicking the women.



      Thus unfolded the'Night of Terror' on Nov. 15, 1917, when the warden at the Occoquan Workhouse in Virginia ordered hi
