In Oklahoma 77 counties cast 45 334 ballots with 25 845 against and 17 656 in favor, a 39 percent yes vote, signaling continued openness to open markets and cautious stance on federal control. The defeat clouded prospects for a bipartisan subsidy bill as Democratic leaders split and Republicans backed the administration.
