Secretary Gray Announces Top Five Election Integrity Priorities Ahead of Legislative Budget Session
Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray recently announced his top five legislative priorities in anticipation of the Wyoming Legislative Budget Session that begins next month in Cheyenne. Gray said that as Secretary of State and Wyoming’s chief election official, he will continue our work on conservative, election integrity measures
Gray said his top five priorities are requiring pen to paper ballots as the default method of voting in Wyoming; increasing Wyoming’s chain of custody procedures by banning ballot drop boxes and ballot harvesting; strengthening Wyoming’s Voter ID law by eliminating Medicare, Medicaid, and student IDs as acceptable forms of identification for voting; instituting hand tabulation verification of voting machines for recounts and audits; and amending Wyoming’s Constitution to ban dual citizenship for voting and holding office.

So what happened to eliminating the ballot tabulators?

And returning county commission elections to Standard, one-person-one-vote elections.
No more Non-standard, Multi-seat, Multi-vote elections that Always favor incumbents.
Putting 10 people on a list and saying, “vote for no more than three” is a dis-service to voters. It causes confusion and gives a significant advantage to all “high-name-recognition” Incumbents.
Since 2010 all incumbents running for re-election, have been re-elected. That’s a 100% re-election rate for the last 8 election cycles, spanning almost 16 years.
Sheridan, we have a problem!
One-person, one-vote is the bedrock of the democratic election process. We need to return to election fairness and integrity, by making all county commission elections standard. That’s one-seat, one-incumbent, one-person, one-vote.
Non-standard, multi-seat, multi-vote elections are rigged for incumbents and should be forever banned in Wyoming.
Election fairness and integrity are foundational to a free republic.
And the solution is so simple that it demands implementation.
But first, we have to recognize and admit that there’s a structural problem with the way county commission races are currently administered.

We have two US senators. Why don’t they both come up at the same time?
