If you think you might be registered to vote, but you’re not sure, call your local county clerk.
Request a mail-in “absentee” ballot by calling or emailing your local county clerk or mailing in an absentee ballot request form. Then do your research on the candidates, fill out your ballot, and send it in before election day! All ballots must be received by 7 p.m. on Nov. 3, so we recommend mailing it at least 5 days early or dropping it off at the county clerk’s office.
Vote at your local county clerk’s office up to 40 days before the primary or general election. Call ahead of time to learn about COVID-related changes and options such as curbside voting.
Many Wyoming counties have reduced the number of open polling places due to COVID-19. Find your polling place here so you know where to go on election day!
Primary elections narrow the field of candidates by allowing members of each political party to choose who will advance to the general election. You must be a registered member of a political party to vote in that party’s primary. You may vote in non-partisan races if you are unaffiliated with a political party.
The general election determines who will ultimately serve in office. You do not have to be registered with any political party to vote in the general election.

No. However, if you’re planning on registering to vote at the polls, which is common in Wyoming, you’ll need your ID to register.
Call your local county clerk. Typically, your ballot should arrive in the mail 5 – 7 days after you request it.
Once you mail your ballot back, you can also call to check whether they received it, which might also take 5 – 7 days.
Mail-in ballots must be received by your local county clerk by 7 p.m. on Election Day in order to count. So, while there are a few variables when you consider the speed of the post office, it’s best to send yours in at least five days in advance. Three is definitely pushing it. The sooner, the better!
If you think it might be too late to mail in your ballot but you can get it to the county clerk’s office yourself, you can drop it off there any time before 7 p.m. on election day.
Contact your local county clerk first. If they cannot help, contact [email protected] with the subject line “Voting question” and we’ll see what we can do.
