Wyoming Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! You can check your voter registration online on Wyoming’s Board of Elections website here, or you can contact the Board of Elections at (307) 777-5860.

It can take several weeks. Most states send out voter registration cards within 5 to 7 weeks after receiving the registration. If you do not receive a registration card in the mail, contact your state election office to confirm you are registered. Find your state’s contact information in our How to Vote in Your State section on this page! In any event, you should verify your registration a week prior to the voter registration deadline in your state in case you need to fill out a new registration form or correct your form.

Elections take place all the time throughout the year, and odds are, you probably have an election coming up in your state! In addition to the presidential election and midterm elections, you have statewide, countywide and municipal elections that you can make your voice heard in. Make sure you know when your upcoming elections are so that you don’t miss a single one! Check out when your next election is here.

Your state doesn’t provide an online ballot tracking system. You can contact your county clerk and ensure that they received your ballot. Find their contact information here.

YES you are able to register to vote at your student address. You should provide your official campus mailing address as well as the actual physical address of your on or off campus residence when registering to vote. You must have some sort of proof of address and residency that can be presented at your polling place (mail, a student ID, etc.). For more information, we suggest visiting your state’s elections office website. Remember: you can only register to vote and vote in one place, whether that is your student address or your home address!

YES, unhoused voters can register to vote and use their voice in Wyoming’s elections. Unhoused voters or voters without a permanent address may list a shelter address, street corner, or park as their address. For more information on voting while unhoused, visit our friends at the National Coalition for the Homeless.

YES. In this case you must register at the last address you had before you left the USA, or at the address to which you will return to when returning to the USA (you must present some indication of a present intent to return and live there – e.g. vehicle registration, driver’s license, property ownership, family, etc). If you have never had a permanent address in the United States but are a citizen you are allowed to register at an address you plan on moving to or an address where you currently have family living. Access more information on voting overseas here.

You may call the voting rights hotline at 866 687-8683, if informing another poll worker isn’t successful. They have lawyers ready to help you. Additionally, you can call the civil rights division of the U.S Department of Justice. You can also find Wyoming’s elections office here and contact them by phone at (307) 777-5860.

How Vote By Mail Works in Wyoming

Voting by mail is a two step process in Wyoming.

Step 1: Request your ballot NOW. The deadline to request your ballot by mail is the day before Election Day. We recommend that you apply as soon as possible. If possible, we suggest applying for your ballot at least two weeks in advance to allow for plenty of time to complete and return it.

Step 2: Complete and return your ballot ASAP.

  • Return in person to your county clerk's office by Election Day at 7 p.m.
  • Or stamp and mail your ballot -  ballots must be received by Election Day. We recommend mailing your ballot at least two weeks before as the post office is not always reliable. The best intentions or postmark will not matter if your ballot is received after Election Day - your ballot will not count.

Where to Sign Your Ballot

Remember to sign your return ballot.

After you complete your ballot, sign the affidavit on the return envelope. 

If you forget to sign the oath, your ballot will be tossed and your vote will not count.

How You Can Return Your Mail-in Ballot

If you return your ballot by mail, you must add a stamp when mailing in your ballot.

You can also drop off your ballot in person at your local elections office.

Can Someone Else Return Your Ballot For You?

Anyone may return a ballot your behalf but this issue is currently a part of pending legislation, and is subject to change before this year’s election.

Haven't used your ballot?

If you would like to vote in person, request to vote in person on Election Day. It is not required that you return your unused ballot in order to vote.

Opportunities to Fix Challenges to Your Ballot

Wyoming does not offer voters a chance to address challenges to their ballot. Your ballot will not count if it is late, or you do not follow directions.

In Wyoming, you can preregister to vote if you are 18 by the next election. Register to vote today!

Some states even let you vote in their primaries at 17 if you’ll be 18 by the general election so you can participate in the whole process!
