Voting is a fundamental right of our democracy. The decisions made in city halls, state legislatures, the United States Congress. and every other level of government affect the lives of all Wyomingites. And while there are many ways to influence our elected officials, decisions really get made by the people who show up and vote.
That’s why casting a ballot this year is critical. The 2024 General Election could affect the course of our country and our democracy for decades to come. As voters, we have the power to define what freedom looks like and who gets access to it. We can create communities where we all can live with safety, dignity, and joy. But when we don’t vote, we let others decide what freedom looks like. Elected officials don’t have the final say when it comes to our rights – we do.
Our democracy works best when all eligible voters participate and have their voices heard. Here’s everything you need to know about casting your ballot this year.
Voter registration deadline for the General Election: Monday, Oct. 21 (Voters may still register in person and cast an absentee ballot Oct. 22 to Nov. 4.)
