As Lieutenant Governor of Oklahoma, James E. Berry served as the President of the Senate, giving him a tie-breaking vote and allowing him to serve as the presiding officer in ceremonial instances or during joint session. Tom Anglin served as the primary presiding officer, or President Pro Tempore of the Oklahoma Senate. He was a former Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives, during the term of Governor William H. Murray.[2]

The Oklahoma Democratic Party held 93 seats in the Oklahoma House of Representatives in 1943, allowing them to select the Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives.[1] Harold Freeman of Pauls Valley, Oklahoma served in the role during the regular session in 1943 and Merle Lansden, a Marine private from Beaver, Oklahoma, served in the role during the special session in 1944.[1] Freeman was unable to serve because of being called to serve.[1] R.M.

gollark: The chance is so ridiculously tiny that it is practically zero. If you can break SHA256 etc. you will be extremely rich.

gollark: Basically all cryptominers are burning huge amounts of ASIC time to generate slightly closer to 0 hashes. A collision is basically impossible unless the hash function gets broken somehow.

gollark: I like what Nim does. You can define AST→AST macros and simple substitution ones for common cases.

gollark: You can't really ensure they terminate *and* allow IO and the language's full power.

gollark: It does also seem to be a difficult problem to have large scale meshes without trusting everyone involved or manually configuring things.
