Wyoming Vote Tracker

I was excited that Rep. Dan Zwonitzer had dropped out of the U.S. House race. He has little recognition across the state and he wouldn’t have fared very well come August 19. A decent man, but not quite ready for a race of this magnitude. So, you’ll understand the shock I felt when I saw this headline this morning. Continue Reading »

In case you haven’t heard or seen the news, Sen. Enzi made his decision public yesterday. For the past several months, Republican officials have been pondering what Wyoming’ senior senator was going to do this year. The media has been prying to end to get some kind of idea what to write about. Granted, Sen. Enzi is pretty popular, so a re-election could be fairly easy, but everyone wants to know if they should be watching for a new Republican face to come along. Continue Reading »

I would like to endorse North Carolina GOP Chairman Linda Daves for the Republican Nomination for President.

That’s right. If you’re one of those out there thinking “Oh, come on. Not another anti-McCain post” you’re not going to want to read this. It’s bad news about the presumptive nominee. Continue Reading »

I know, a lot of you are saying, “Scott! Where’s the big formal announcement?!?!?! She’s your candidate; why haven’t you posted the announcement????”

I’m here to tell you, it’s OK; calm down; we’re gonna be alright.

I had a phone call from Annaliese today. She tried to send me some stuff and my e-mail account, for whatever crazy reason, decided to bounce it. I have since reprimanded my e-mail account (all known and possible lummis2008.com addresses are now “safe”). In the mean time, while waiting for the full official text, I figured I’d share some quotes from Tuesday that I do have. Continue Reading »

My fellow Wyomingites, this year we face an important and historic election cycle in this state. I know many of you (myself included) are somewhat distraught about the Republican Presidential nomination process. Our nominee has been picked for us by the influence of Independents and Democrats in open primary states and the struggle of having two conservatives in the race vying for the same block of voters.

Let not your heart be troubled. It’s not the end of the world because we didn’t get our favored nominee. It just means we’re gonna have to do some self-examination and regrouping in the party over the next four to eight years.

On another, more exciting token, we have a rare event taking place in Wyoming this year. Continue Reading »

On Saturday, March 15, I made up one-fourth of a group of Park County Republicans that “crashed” the Big Horn County GOP Lincoln Day Dinner in Lovell, Wyoming. The event was not as large or elegant as the dinner held in Cody a month prior, but it was still nice to get to socialize with some Republicans from the rival county. Following is a recollection of what happened. Continue Reading »
