I'm not sure who redistricted or gerrymandered the 50th and surrounded districts but looking back at historical races they were close now it's like 200k Republicans to 100k Dems

I'm going to keep my fingers crossed

There's some Democratic cross-over voting in Wyoming's Republican primary.

Retired police officer Pat Seals, of Cheyenne, says he changed over from Democratic registration to be able to vote in the Republican primary. That's not uncommon in Wyoming, which allows voters to change party registration at the polls and vote in whichever primary they want.

Seals says Democrats aren't running many people in Wyoming this year and he wants his vote to be more consequential.

Seals says he voted for Secretary of State Mark Gordon for governor. Seals says he likes Gordon's experience in government — none of the other five Republicans running for governor has held elected office before.

Seals also voted for Dave Dodson for U.S. Senate. Dodson is challenging incumbent Republican Sen. John Barrasso and Seals says it's time for "fresh air" in Washington, D.C.

--------

In an unusual move, one of the Republican candidates for Wyoming U.S. Senate seat has withdrawn from the race.

Charlie Hardy withdrew has application for the Republican Party nomination on Monday afternoon, less than 24 hours before the polls opened Tuesday.

Hardy was one of five challengers seeking to unseat incumbent John Barrasso.

But Hardy was never seen as a serious challenger in the primary. He had switched his party affiliation after running unsuccessfully for the Senate in 2014 as a Democrat against Mike Enzi and advocated for policies that were far more liberal than other candidates.

In announcing his withdrawal, Hardy says he was endorsing Jackson businessman Dave Dodson for the job.

:hhh:
