2025

In 2025, Wyoming lawmakers adopted 10 election-related bills. The bills modified state law regarding absentee ballot request forms, voting eligibility, funding for campaigns and elections, ranked-choice voting, and bond elections.

  • SF 78 prohibits anyone other than a county clerk, the secretary of state, or their designees from distributing absentee ballot request forms unless specifically solicited by a voter.
  • SF 9 modifies who may apply for the restoration of voting rights after a felony conviction. The bill removes the possibility for an individual convicted of a federal felony to regain the right to vote, while persons convicted of nonviolent felonies in any state can still apply to have their rights restored.
  • HB 156 requires documentary proof of citizenship to register and changes residency requirements to register to vote.
  • HB 337 prohibits foreign nationals or governments from contributing to ballot measure committees or otherwise supporting statewide initiatives or referendums.
  • HB 228 prohibits the use of private funding for election administration.
  • HB 165 bans ranked-choice voting for any election.
  • HB 79 requires that, for bond elections on a day other than a regular general election date, at least 25% of the number of voters at the last general election must participate for the question to pass.
