HOW TO VOTE
- Absentee Ballot: In Wyoming, you do not need an excuse to request an absentee ballot. You can submit an absentee ballot by mail, online, by phone, or in person as early as 28 days before an election. You must return that absentee ballot so that the County Clerk receives it 7pm on Election Day. You can submit the ballot by mail, in-person, or, in some counties, by drop box.
- Early In-Person Voting: You can vote early, in-person up to 28 days before an election by visiting your County Clerk's office.
- Voting at the Polling Place: Polls are open from 7am to 7pm on Election Day. If you are in line by 7pm, you have the right to vote. Even if you are still waiting to cast your ballot after 7pm.
Though you can request an absentee ballot at any time in an election year, you can submit an absentee ballot and begin to early vote on Tuesday, October 8th for the General Election.
You will need to bring an ID with you. Wyoming voters are required to show an acceptable form of identification when voting in person.
Wyoming law entitles voters to one hour, other than the meal hour, to vote. However, the law does not apply to certain categories of employees, such as some federal workers or those who have three or more consecutive non-working hours during the time polls are open.
WHAT'S ON MY BALLOT?
Your County Clerk may post sample ballots in the newspaper and their office. The Secretary of State will publish proposed constitutional amendments and other ballot propositions on their website and in newspapers.
Organizations, like Vote411, Ballotpedia, and WYVote will create sample ballots. Every single position on your ballot makes important decisions that influence your daily life. Acquaint yourself with candidates as much as possible - attend forums, reach out, and participate!
