A 9-year-old girl set off on a mission to get Oklahoma a state horse.A typical 9-year-old is in fourth grade, may be involved in a sport or activity and loves chatting and playing with friends. KOCO 5 met one young girl who isn’t typical at all. When she was nine, Julianne set off on a mission. The mission ended on Wednesday ended with a signature from the governor."I just decided that we should have a state horse. We really deserve one. We have so much history there," Julianne said.She was nine when she learned Oklahoma was missing something our neighboring states have: a state horse. Oklahoma didn’t have one, until Wednesday.A small delegation of horseback riders, led by Gov. Kevin Stitt and trailed by a reporter doing his best just to stay in the saddle, arrived at the Capitol. A signature made it official, all thanks to Julianne’s discovery and her grandfather."All the states around us had a state horse, but she couldn’t find one for the state of Oklahoma. So from then, she talked to her mom. Her mom said, 'Send it to her state representative.' She didn’t realize it, that that was me. But I got a letter saying, 'Pa.' So, it started there," her grandfather said. After some research, it was clear the American quarter horse would be the right choice."These quarter horses are the decedents of those Mustangs that helped people come to Oklahoma," Julianne said.Like all legislation, even one that had broad support, it took time to get passed."I think it was in ’18 or ’19, ran it several times, didn’t make it all the way through, and then finally this year, we picked up Cowboy Stephens to run it in the Senate, and we made it all the way through to the Governor signing today," her grandfather said.
