Establishing Statehood

Question 6 • OK-Oklahoma History

Which of the following was not an eventual effect of the Sequoyah Constitutional Convention?

Answer
A
The convention helped supporters of American Indians gain political standing in the future.
B
The constitution drafted during the Sequoyah Convention inspired the Oklahoma Constitution.
C
The Sequoyah statehood bill was passed in the House of Representatives and Senate.
D
The vice-chairman of the convention, Charles N. Haskell, became the first governor of Oklahoma

Explanation

The Sequoyah Convention drafted a constitution and sought to create a separate state from Indian Territory, but Congress did not pass the Sequoyah statehood bill. The convention’s constitution later influenced Oklahoma’s constitution, and Charles N. Haskell became Oklahoma’s first governor. Therefore, the claim that the bill passed both the House and Senate was not an eventual effect.
