Indian Times: Native Americans and the Election (Nov 09, 2012) The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) offered a webinar Thursday on what Indian Country’s votes did in last week’s election, and those results were fascinating. One of the speakers on the webinar was Oklahoma attorney Arvo Mikkanen (Kiowa/Comanche). Mikkanen is president of the Oklahoma Indian Bar Association, who ran a voter call in help line on election day. Mikkanen talks about the Oklahoma Indian Bar Association (OIBA) and how Native Americans are getting out the vote. For more information on the OIBA, go to their Facebook page.
