What You Need To Vote Today In Wyoming

Time to vote in Wyoming's all-important primary. Unlike many other states, this is where most major decisions are made, since the Cowboy State is mostly Republican. Crossover voting on primary day is no longer allowed.

This year is an important election year in Wyoming. We will be choosing a new Governor, Senator, and someone for the U.S. House of Representatives. We will also need a new Secretary of State and public School Superintendent. The makeup of the Wyoming House and Senate will change, as well. We can expect a big turnover of many county and city seats across Wyoming.

Wyoming polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on this Tuesday.

Because Wyoming has such a low population and many towns and counties are so small, election results usually come in quickly. Some races are called within an hour or so of the polls being closed.
