Empowering Voters

For decades, LWV Wyoming has been a respected organization in our state. It engages in rigorous study and discussion of public policy issues. Members actively participate in the political process while maintaining a nonpartisan position to promote fair policies.

Wyoming is home to five local leagues: Campbell County, Casper, Cheyenne, Fremont County, Laramie, and at-large members in Teton County. These leagues are at the forefront of promoting voter turnout and educating about the candidates, including their active participation in Vote411.org, the league’s online voter guide platform.

The League is Soliciting Voter Registration Feedback

We have begun an initiative about youth (18-35) voter registration and want to hear from you.  See our flyer here.

Election Security:  The League of Women Voters of Wyoming believes that voting is a fundamental right that must be supported and protected. We oppose legislation limiting those rights that discourage voting, add expense, and create unnecessary barriers. Voter fraud is NOT occurring in Wyoming.

Wyoming elections are secure: There is no evidence of voter impersonation. There is no evidence that current absentee voting laws, use of ballot drop boxes, or early voting have resulted in any significant abuse. Restriction on voter choice of party affiliation eliminates options and discourages voting.

 

The LWVWY is a nonpartisan, grass-roots organization working to:

  • Protect and expand voting rights
  • Ensure everyone is represented in our democracy
  • Ensure elections remain free and accessible to all
  • Ensure people have the information they need to participate in elections
  • Promote personal political responsibility through informed and active participation in government and public policy
  • Neither support nor oppose any political party or candidate
  • Support and advocate for policies and legislation based on national and state positions as agreed upon through a study and consensus process
  • Fully commit to ensuring compliance–in principle and practice–with LWVUS’ Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Policy

Membership in the League of Women Voters of Wyoming is open to all people age 16 or older.  We invite you to learn more about us by exploring our website. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you want further information.
