Oklahoma farmers weigh Eisenhower to Stevenson shift
In Kingfisher and surrounding counties Oklahoma voters discuss farm drought and prices shaping a possible 1956 electoral shift. Farmers like VPi-wi Struck favor Stevenson while others back Eisenhower, amid dry weather, high costs, and vanished wheat yields since 1952. Local merchants and workers note farm prosperity links to national results as voters weigh health and party loyalty.
