Political parties-county central committees-2.
HB 187 would amend Wyoming election law to require that elected party officials, such as county chairpersons, automatically become members of their county central committees. This bill changes the committee composition by adding these officials - defined by party bylaws - to the existing group of precinct committee members elected by voters. The change would apply to all political parties across Wyoming, with the policy taking effect on July 1, 2026. The bill failed to pass in the Wyoming House of Representatives in February 2026.
