ELECTION DAY IS NOVEMBER 3, 2020. IF YOU CANNOT VOTE IN PERSON, DROP YOUR ABSENTEE BALLOT OFF AT YOUR COUNTY COURTHOUSE OR MAIL IT BEFORE OCTOBER 13 (to allow for slow delivery).
For the first time in Wyoming history, voters will be choosing from only female candidates in the state’s two federal races in November. Wyoming will have its first female delegate in the U.S. Senate, as former Congresswoman Cynthia Lummis and University of Wyoming ecology professor Merav Ben-David will face off in the Nov. 3 general election. Lynnette Grey Bull is the first Native American person from a major party to be nominated for a federal position in Wyoming. She faces incumbent, Liz Cheney for the U.S. House.
