Laurie Weahkee who is of Zuni, Navajo and Cochiti heritage, cited Obama's ability to address Native American issues. She said she believes Obama has demonstrated during the campaign that he is "an honest and genuine leader" who can build trust with Indian communities.

"That's the real key to improving relations between tribal governments and the United States government," Weahkee said. "I think he's really going to fight for Native Americans."
