Wyoming Republican, who Lost in August 21 Primary for Governor, Wants to Prevent Voters from Switching Parties on Primary Day

Wyoming currently has closed primaries, but it permits voters to change parties on primary day, at the polls. Foster Friess, who lost the Republican gubernatorial primary on August 21, has suggested that the 2019 legislature change the law, so that party switchers would not be allowed within 21 days before the primary. He appears to believe that Democratic voters switched to being Republican on primary day, and voted against him. See this story.

  1. Gee- again —

    NO primaries — and ALL the machinations connected to them.

    PR and AppV

  2. If voters in Wyoming don’t vote in the Republican primary, they forfeit their opportunity to vote for county officials.
