(NewsNation) — Wyoming voters will head to the polls Tuesday to cast their ballots in several important races.
Presidential race in Wyoming
Former President Donald Trump is projected to win Wyoming.
US Senate race in Wyoming
Republican incumbent John Barraso won reelection to the U.S. Senate against Democrat Scott Morrow, a political newcomer.
Morrow, a union officer and activist, ran unopposed in the Democratic primary.
Barrasso is also competing for the No. 2 spot in the GOP after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell stepped down, a position he held since 2007.
US House race in Wyoming
Wyoming voters will also select the state’s single U.S. House representative. A one-term incumbent, Republican candidate Harriet Hageman, faces three challengers: Democrat Kyle Cameron, Constitution Party candidate Jeff Haggit and Libertarian Richard Brubaker.
Trump-backed Hageman defeated three-term Congresswoman Liz Cheney in 2022. Former Rep. Cheney was one of the most vocal, if not the most vocal, Republican critics of former President Donald Trump, vowing to ensure he is never elected again.
Statewide ballot measures in Wyoming
Voters will also decide on one statewide ballot measure that would adjust property taxes. If approved, the constitutional amendment would add a new class and subclass of property for tax purposes. “Residential real property” would be added as a fourth, separate property class, with a subcategory of “owner occupied primary residences,” which could be assessed at a different rate.
On Tuesday, 468 seats in the U.S. Congress (33 Senate seats and all 435 House seats) are up for grabs. These elections will determine who has control over the two chambers of Congress, and ultimately, who sets the agenda for the next president’s term.
Wyoming, a red state, has three Electoral College votes. The presidential election winner must earn 270 Electoral College votes to assume office.
Early voting in Wyoming started Oct. 22. All polls for in-person voting on Election Day run from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
