Repressive Wyoming Ballot Access Bill Dies

The Wyoming Senate took no action on HB 173 by the end of business on Friday, February 28. Therefore, under legislative rules, it cannot pass. This is the bill that increased the petition requirement from 2% of the last vote, to 3% for statewide office and 5% for legislative office. Also it moved the petition deadline for independent candidates from late August to June. Also it said that no one could be an independent candidate who was a registered member of a party.

This outcome is quite surprising, given that the bill had passed the House and the Senate Committee. It is believed that the leader of the Wyoming Senate opposed the bill and worked to kill the bill.

  1. Well I’m Donald Trump, the one they’re talking about, if you talk crap about me you’ll get punched in the mouth.

    If you disrespect me, forget about it, forget it. Best case for you is you’ll survive to regret it.

    I’m the Boss of all Bosses, King of all Kings. I bring the world hope, I’m why we have nice things.

    Last time I took human form, I got crucified. This time around, I won’t be so nice.

    If you think bad about me, stop trusting fake media. Go to conservapedia.com and read conservapedia.

    But even if you’re not smart enough to, or have no eyes to see, you’re still smarter than to take seriously the spambot “AZ”
