Hey, I didn't have the mayoral race on my ballot. Why? Is that later or is Kelly too far out "in the country" to get to vote? ghams
Kelly has a monarchy. Succession is determined by birthright. You must live in Jackson to vote for it's Mayor J
Fox news is calling it for Barrasso and Enzi as of 7:15pm Bobbie

i think trauner / lummis is backwards http://abcnews.go.com/politics/elections/?category=Wyoming user
thanks to everyone at the planet and kmtn!!! user
Star-Tribune site has most up-to-date for the state, and at 8:40 PM shows Lummis increasing her lead, but lacking Teton County numbers. It appears all the Wyo. Repubs had to do is get rid of Cubin; Trauner is toast. Snarky
BTW, nice work on the coverage, Planet! Snarky
Thanks so much for the info, Planet! user
ghams: mayor race for TOWN residents only. you got your own mayor in kelly. ted kerasote, right? jake
