You Ask, And I Answer!

Q&A with Representative-Elect Michelle McCane

Q1: When do you start?

A1: Rep. Monroe Nichols is the current Representative for OKHD72 and will continue to serve until the end of his term in November.
I will be sworn in following the General Election in November.

Q2: Will you have to move to OKC?

A2: No. Representatives must continue to live in the districts they serve and I have no plans to move away from OKHD72.

Q3: Will you have an office in Tulsa?

A3: No. Unfortunately, the state does not provide funding for legislators to have offices in their districts. I am actively looking for meeting locations that can be used on an as needed basis. If you have any suggestions, submit those using one of the contact options listed on Question #9

Q4: Will you continue teaching?

A4: Oklahoma law prohibits me from continuing my career as a public school educator while serving and for two years after leaving office. However, I will teach for the 2024-2025 school year beginning in August until I am sworn in this November.

Q5: What do you do before you’re sworn in?

A5: I have no official duties until I am sworn in but in the meantime I am continuing to do strategic work to prepare. I will also return to work as a teacher on August 5th.

Q6: Will this be your official page?

A6: No, this page will continue to act as a campaign page and will not be used for official duties or communication. Official social media accounts or pages will be announced and shared after I have taken the oath of office.

Q7: What can I do to support you now?

A7: Share our posts and information with those you know, especially in OKHD72
Submit your ideas, upcoming events, and other information I should know using one of the contact options listed on Question #9
Make a post-election donation to provide funding for constituent engagement

Q8: What elections are coming up?

A8: The next election will be August 27th for Tulsa mayor and city council as well as run-offs for Tulsa County Commissioner District 2. If needed, a run-off election for mayor and/or city council will be held on November 5th. Go to https://okvoterportal.okelections.us/ to view your sample ballot.
