 Welcome to Wyoming, population 600,000 people all of them dipshits. Wyoming has the distinction of being the least populated state in the US and the most republican by vote percentage. However since the state has managed to avoid becoming kansas theres a bit more going on than it seems. The GOP, a degenerate hive of neocons, succdems, theocrats, and libertarian "ranchers", remains the only real way for people to get in polics for 80% of the state, which has peaked with an actual dedicated PAC encouraging people to vote in GOP primaries to gently caress with their results and owning the poo poo out of millionaire Foster Friess, the trump approved candidate for wyo governor who lost to boring rear end suit Mark Gordon. The Wyoming Democrats meanwhile are stuck as a microcosm of the democrats nationwide. Most of the dem base is made up of bernie sanders supporters who understand government intervention will be needed to solve pretty much anything in the state since the free market would treat Wyo like the Belgian Congo at the first chance. Unfortunately, all the money is concentrated in Jackson Hole, the only blue county in the state and one of the wealthiest counties in the county, so the shitlibs there are the only visible example of dem policies, which are basically the policies of the shitlibs in california, which has carried into JH having the highest eviction rate in the state. Good job hell fuckers. Anyway the elections in nov 2018 will prolly just result in the current status quo. Mary Throne, the dem candidate for govenor is boring as poo poo and cant really seperate her self from boring rear end mark and will assuredly lose hard, the congressional races will remain red because the candidates are boring  , and the states attempts at economic diversification will prolly fail despite having like a 1.5 billion dollar fund they could use to just put up some state owned weed dispensaries or some poo poo and skipping the tax debate entirely by just dumping weed profit straight into general fund because the state legislature is made by either small business tyrants, retirees with hobby ranches, or the failsons of the latter two with a few people from the state bureaucracy scattered here and there. Hail loving satan may the yellowstone volcano just erase this worthless loving state

I covered politics in Cheyenne for five years. My city councilman was Richard Johnson, a former skater punk who was elected because nobody bothered researching the candidates so they voted for the guy whose name is literally the word "dick" two times in a row. He admitted to me he ran for office on a dare. Here he is (on the left) during the most recent Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo. He's posing alongside Jim Byrd, one of the only elected Democrats in the Wyoming House of Representatives, and a man who will stop at nothing to try to work legal marijuana into literally any bill he can -- a farming bill, a tax bill, whatever it is, he'll try to sneak some decriminalization language in there. Johnson turned out to be a surprisingly refreshing council member. He's spent most of his term so far repealing poorly-enforced and outdated laws and using his position to push hard for local charity fundraisers. He's also an avowed atheist and regularly wears heavy metal band t-shirts to council events, bearing names like Baby Death Rattle or Nun Explosion.

He's sort of an Evan McMullin type from what I remember of him (I moved away last year). I have positive memories of him because he and I both utterly despised Moses Lee Hasenauer, the semi-literate Alex Jones-style conspiracy theorist who stumbled his way through two years as a goddamn county commissioner. Hasenauer was so loving bad he actually managed to get replaced by a Democrat in the next election, which is still pretty tough to do in Laramie County outside of specific legislative districts.
