Wewoka, Oklahoma (ICC)
Lottie Coody seeks the nomination for principal chief that could make her the first woman chief appointed by the citizens of the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma.
It is Coody’s elder status and her unconventional female nomination that set her apart. Her run invokes memories of Alice Brown Davis the most notable woman leader of the Seminole Nation. Davis was recognized as an outstanding member of her tribe because of the hard work and dedication that she exhibited in tribal affairs.
