The bill amends existing laws regarding the composition and election of county central committees for political parties in Wyoming. It specifies that the county central committee will include not only precinct committeemen and committeewomen elected during the biennial primary elections but also those who have been properly appointed and ratified to fill vacancies, as well as duly elected party officials in accordance with party bylaws. This change aims to clarify the membership of these committees and ensure that all relevant party officials are recognized as part of the central committee.
Additionally, the bill outlines the procedures for the county central committee's odd-year meetings, where the committee will elect its chairman, a state committeeman, and a state committeewoman, among other positions. It allows for the possibility that the chairman, state committeeman, or state committeewoman may not necessarily be members of the county central committee, but they can be if desired. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
