The bill amends existing election laws in Wyoming to establish that a "qualified elector" must be a bona fide resident of the state for at least thirty (30) days prior to the election in which they wish to vote. This requirement is added to the definition of a qualified elector, which also includes being registered to vote and not having been convicted of a felony without having restored civil rights. Additionally, the bill provides an exception for individuals who do not meet the thirty-day residency requirement but are otherwise qualified to vote for president and vice president of the United States.

The bill makes several conforming changes across various sections of the election code, including the definitions of "qualified elector" and the qualifications for voter registration. It specifies that applicants must affirm their residency duration in the voter registration oath. The effective date of the bill is immediate upon completion of the necessary legislative processes.
