HB 278 Wyoming House · 2025 Regular Session

Elections-voting machine and voting system tests.

HB 278 (Wyoming bill) requires county clerks to publicly test voting machines before elections and make these tests accessible to the public. It mandates posting public notices 5 days before testing (or 24 hours before re-tests), allowing political party representatives and the public to observe accuracy checks and counter resets. The bill removes the previous presumption that machines were properly prepared, instead requiring documented testing that verifies counters start at zero and accurately count votes. These changes apply directly to Wyoming county clerks and election officials managing voting systems.
