crossover voting

Opponents argue that such legislation interferes with voters' rights to cast a ballot for the candidate of their choice, and say the rights of voters should take precedence over those of political parties.

A crossover voting bill passed the state House last season before being defeated in the Senate.

The state Republican Party had called the passage of a crossover voting bill it's top priority for the session

The committee voted 3-2 against the bill on Tuesday.

A similar bill, House Bill 106, remains alive in the Wyoming House of Representatives and at last report was still awaiting action in a House committee.

Senate File 32 would bar people from changing their party registration in the ten weeks leading up to the primary election

Current Law allows voters to vote in either primary simply by changing their party registration at any time.
