Primary Election

Tuesday's primary election drew about 26 percent of Wyoming's voters to the polls, the highest primary turnout the Cowboy State has seen in over a decade.

Laramie County Clerk Debra Lee says recounts conducted in two Republican legislative primary elections on Thursday showed a change of one vote in each but didn't change the outcome in either race.

Three incumbents running for state house, including a high ranking member, did not survive in the primaries.

The Natrona County Clerk posted primary election results much later than usual Tuesday night because of a new way of counting ballots, County Clerk Renea Vitto said.

The consolidation of the precincts came about after voter complaints about problems at school polling places including parking, access for the handicapped, construction and concerns about tightened security.

Construction projects will not be completed for these schools by the Aug. 16 Primary, so the polling places had to be moved.

Wyoming Secretary of State Ed Murray said, "It is our responsibility as good citizens, living in this great land of freedom, to become informed and exercise our right to vote."

Natrona County Clerk Renea Vitto said voters have complained for years about school polls with limited parking, handicap access, and even basketballs bouncing through the voting areas.
