voting access

Wyoming’s last election cycle saw few procedural hiccups and a Freedom Caucus surge to power in the House. But members of the caucus want to crack down on voter fraud anyway.

Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford cited “the rule of law” in a recent speech talking about how several states have taken legal action against changes they say would put unfair burdens on voters to prove citizenship or on how states count votes.

The House recently passed legislation to require people to prove they are U.S. citizens when they register to vote. Native American groups, however, argue the proposal, if signed into law, would make it difficult for tribal members.

Since the 2020 election, officials across the country have imposed more requirements to insure voter eligibility. It's an issue that is on the ballot in some states in our region.

Most people in jail across the country are eligible to vote. But it’s not easy for many of those incarcerated people to cast their ballots. A Colorado effort is starting to turn that around.

Wyoming Public Radio posed all your “How do I?” and “What ifs?” to Converse County’s election clerk.

Indigenous voters represent a fraction of the total voting population, but their vote could be pivotal in battleground states such as Nevada and Arizona. But actually voting is a different story for most Native people – registering to vote and casting a vote is made difficult by distance and a lack of access.

A new election law is tripping up some voters in Wyoming. Registered voters needed to declare party affiliation back in May to vote the ballot of their choice in the primary election on Aug. 20.

The party alleges the Laramie County Clerk's Office's vote tabulators failed a test required before the upcoming primary election.

The federal government said the 2021 executive order was designed to expand voting access for people who have traditionally faced difficulties. Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray said it’s an attempt to harvest votes.
