Frequently Asked Questions
I voted absentee in 2022. Will I automatically receive absentee ballots in the future?
No. Voters must make a new request for absentee ballots each election cycle. If you do not contact our office in 2024 to request absentee ballots, you will not receive them.
You can make the request as soon as Jan. 1, 2024. Visit this page on early and absentee voting for more information.
I got a Wyoming driver's license. Am I automatically registered to vote?
No. In Wyoming, you must separately register to vote. However, it’s something that can easily be done using your Wyoming’s driver’s license at the Park County Courthouse, Powell City Hall or Meeteetse Town Hall. See our voter registration page for more information.
How do I know if I'm still registered to vote?
If you have already registered in Park County and you voted in the last general election (November 2022), you remain actively registered. If you did not vote in the 2022 General Election, your voter registration is inactive and you will need to re-register.
If you are unsure whether you are registered to vote, you can contact our office to check your status.
How do I update my registration?
If you need to update your name or address, or if you want to change your political affiliation, you must follow the same process as when you first registered. That means presenting your ID at the Park County Courthouse, Powell City Hall or Meeteetse Town Hall (or, if making the change by mail, to a notary).
A person can update or change their party affiliation for a primary election no later than the day before candidate filing begins. The candidate filing period begins ninety-six (96) days before the primary election. The last day to change or declare a party affiliation prior to the primary election is May 15, 2024. After the primary election but no later than 14 days before the general election voters can change their party affiliation. Voters also have the option to change their party affiliation at their polling place on the day of the general election or when requesting an absentee ballot.
Is there any information you can give me about the candidates and issues?
Unlike some other states, Wyoming does not send out information to voters about the candidates and items on their ballots, leaving it up to voters to conduct their own research.
Our office is unable to provide you with any information about the candidates beyond their contact information. We recommend voters check with local sources. For instance, the Cody and Powell newspapers typically profile all the candidates on local ballots, and the county’s political parties, chambers of commerce and civic groups often hold forums that are also recorded and archived online.
Is it OK if I leave a portion of my ballot blank?
Yes, you can leave any question on your ballot blank and it will be recorded as an undervote.
What happens if I vote for too many candidates in a race?
If you fill in too many ovals on your ballot — such as voting for four candidates in a race for three positions, or voting both for and against a ballot proposition — you need to request a new ballot, as there is no way to correct an “overvote.”
If you do not request a new ballot, your votes on that race or issue will effectively be voided and logged as overvotes. Your selections in other races will not be affected
