Welcome to the Wyoming state page! Here, Wyoming organizers can access and document ongoing projects, current leadership positions, upcoming races, and other important information. This list is non-exhaustive, and state teams are encouraged to expand and adapt these pages to their organizing needs.

Political Landscape of Wyoming

Partisan Composition of Wyoming

Overall, Wyoming is considered a deep red state, with a Cook PVI of R+25 as of 2022, regularly voting 65%-75% Republican in statewide races. Their US Senators, US House Representative, Governor and all statewide positions are Republican. Republicans also have a supermajority in both the state house (57-5) and state senate (29-2) as of the 2023 legislative session, giving Republicans a statewide trifecta.

Progressive Outlook for Wyoming

The overall progressive strategy for Wyoming is bleak. The state has been solidly conservative for decades and this is unlikely to change in the near future. Therefore, the focus should be on harm reduction and ballot measures that are able to effectively limit the control of the Republican supermajority trifecta while federal changes are incoming. As Wyoming is a closed-primary state, a viable strategy is to register as a Republican to vote for the more moderate candidates on the primary ballot.
