A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election. Wyoming utilizes a closed primary process.[1][2]

Submitted Biography: "I have been an activist for as long as I can remember, practically from the time I could almost reach the buttons on a voting machine. My political awakening came early, sparked by the sight of my mother and other volunteers at the polling station in my elementary school. Watching the ebb of voters, feeling the pulse of democracy in action—it left an indelible mark on my young heart and mind. My parents were campaigners, hosting events to introduce folks to the candidates and drum up voter enthusiasm. In my childhood household, discussions on current topics and political debates were common; and amidst the passionate exchanges, there was always, for me, a lesson in finding common ground, in making peace. Childhood for me wasn't just about playgrounds; it was about pounding the pavement, knocking on doors, and soaking in the energy of campaign events. Fast forward to today, and I find myself unable to settle into a chair. There's a fire in my belly that refuses to be extinguished, a conviction that now, more than ever, standing up is the only option. Because in a world where sitting idly by feels like a betrayal of everything I believe in, inertia just doesn't cut it anymore. As I tune into the happenings of the US House of Representatives, I'm left astounded by the glaring absence of decorum, cooperation, and genuine concern for upholding the U.S. Constitution. It's disheartening to witness what appears to be a chamber engulfed in chaos and crisis."
