Know Your Rights: Voting in Wyoming
Last updated: May 2, 2023 12:15 am
Voting is the cornerstone of democracy and a fundamental right. It all starts with knowing your rights at the ballot box.
The 2024 General Election: Tuesday, November 5, 2024
- Absentee voting for the 2024 General Election begins: Tuesday, October 8, 2024
- Voter registration deadline for the 2024 General Election: Monday, October, 21, 2024 (Voters may still register in person and cast an absentee ballot October 22 – November 4, 2024.)
Here are a few ways you can be prepared to get your vote in easily, get your vote counted, and make sure your voice is heard in Wyoming:
- Check your voter registration status at least 30 days before the election by calling your county clerk's office.
- Locate your polling place and note the hours of operation.
- Find out who and/or what is on your ballot before you go to the polls.
- Consider voting early or absentee if possible. Request an absentee ballot from your county clerk's office. If you plan to vote at the polls, go early in the day to avoid the last-minute rush.
- If you'll be registering at the polls or voting in a federal election for the first time, make sure your ID is valid and up to date.
- If anyone challenges you about voting, don't get mad - get help.
