Dana Murphy really wants to be an Oklahoma Corporation Commissioner.
“It’s not a job I need,” she said. “It’s a job I want.”

the block to being a leader in energy. Most of us know the story of Oklahoma's oil boom in

Helmerich and Payne…the list goes on and on of famous oil men turning black
gold into jobs, revenue and a future for our state.
