I feel honored getting to post the topic for our last state.



I think the exciting news of 2004 was Teton County, which broke the Republican strangehold on the state.  In fact it was the first time that any Democratic candidate broke 50% in any one county since Carter had 52% in Sweetwater County in 1976.  Anyway, I think the big question here is will the Republican be able to break 70% in 2008.

Republican state, staying that way for a long time it looks.  About as interesting as Idaho or Utah.

You guys should do a county-a-day analysis now. I've done the math--it'll only take about 8.6 years.

I think it's amazing that Wyoming has a Democratic Governor.  He barely won re-election last time, but still, he won.

He's got pretty impressive approval ratings too. Even deeply red states can elect competent Democratic governors and for that I salute them

Actually the governorship was open when he won.

The governor of Wyoming has criticized national dem's on numerous occasions.  He has also warned WY Dem's to stay away from national Dem's if they want any chance of winning in WY.

Interesting...Democrats have won six of the last eight gubernatorial elections.


Here is a map of the county results for the 2002 Governor's race.
NOTE: The colors are flip-flopped. (Dem-Blue, Rep-Red)

The Democrats took the big city vote of Cheyenne and Casper.  The souther counties along the Union Pacific railroad route are the traditional Democrat strongholds.

Actually the first map is nicer - in that it's got more shades. (I suppose that's a 50-55 and a 55-60 shade?)

The democrats in 2008 should just have an aim of holding on to teton and trying to win Albany. that would be deemed a success for the party. progress definitely and it would be nice also to get Laramie at around 40%

Except that the number of counties you win doesn't matter. Wyoming Dems would be better aim to win better at the state level, not to get the number of blue (well, red on the atlas) counties up in the presidential election.

The Dems will win Brazil before they win Wyoming in a presidential election.
