Primary Election candidate forums and other important dates

Posted

SUBLETTE COUNTY — Area residents have several upcoming opportunities to meet with candidates for local and state offices. The Pinedale Roundup has compiled the following list of important dates related to the Primary Election to help the public be more informed when they head to the polls on Primary Election Day, August 18.

In Wyoming, clerks purge inactive voters who did not vote in a General Election and do not respond to a notice from the clerk’s office regarding the matter. Sublette County purged more than 1,800 voters who did not vote in the 2025 General Election and did not respond to the notice. If you think you may be one of those purged voters, double check your registration for the 2026 elections. Folks can register to vote by visiting the Sublette County Clerk’s office during normal business hours. Folks can also choose to wait until Election Day to register at the polls.
