Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

With the 2024 Primary Election scheduled for August 20, AARP Wyoming has begun asking candidates for State Legislature for their stances on issues important to Wyoming’s age 50+. Those answers are now available to all Wyoming voters on AARP Wyoming’s blog and its Facebook page.
“Voters aged 50 and over cast two-thirds of all votes in Wyoming’s 2022 election and will once again be a key demographic for candidates in 2024,” says AARP Wyoming Associate State Director Tom Lacock. “In our Video Voter Guide series, we sought candidates’ views on issues important to our members as they vote in the 2024 election.”
All candidates were asked the same three questions - the best way to offer citizens property tax relief while maintaining sustainable funding for entities that rely on property tax for funding; how candidates feel the state can best help older adults age in their homes and communities; as well as how the state should fund ambulance service. As of Monday, July 1, the videos had been seen a collective 2,296 times on Facebook.
Candidates running for spots in the Wyoming Legislature who have been recorded and posted on AARP Wyoming’s Facebook page include (Click here to find your voting district):
Albany County
Johnson and Sheridan Counties
Laramie County
Lincoln County
Laramie and Platte Counties
Natrona County
Natrona and Converse Counties
Washakie County
Park County
Sheridan County
Sweetwater County
Sweetwater, Uinta, Sublette, and Lincoln Counties
The Process
In its Video Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.
In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.
Next Steps
AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at tlacock@aarp.org or 307-214-2071.
While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.
In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.

Voters Guide series, AARP Wyoming is joined virtually for a conversation by candidates for state legislative office. Those candidates are then asked three questions and given 1:30 to answer each question, after which AARP Wyoming allows the candidate two minutes to make the pitch to the voters of their district.<br><br>In May, AARP Wyoming started reaching out to candidates who announced a run for state legislature and invited them to record a Video Voters Guide through phone calls, emails, and texts. Once the Wyoming Secretary of State’s Office released its candidate roster for the 2024 primary election, multiple efforts were made to reach out to every candidate on the roster once again.<br><br><b>Next Steps</b><br>AARP Wyoming will continue to record and distribute Video Voters Guides through the month of July. After the August primary, the focus will turn to candidates who are running in the general election. Candidates wishing to take part in a Video Voters Guide should reach out to Lacock at <span class="Enhancement" ><span class="Enhancement-item"><a class="Link" href="mailto:tlacock@aarp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tlacock@aarp.org</a></span></span> or 307-214-2071.<br><br>While AARP Wyoming has recorded 50 Video Voters Guides thus far, there are some races which will not be represented. For AARP Wyoming to record a Video Voters’ Guide, two or more candidates in the same race must have committed to be recorded.<br><br>In several races a candidate for office in a district has committed to recording a Voter’s Guide, while their opponent did not. The candidates who did offer to record a Video Voters Guide but were not able to have their guides released due to their opponents not being willing to take part include: Thomas Lear, Lloyd Larsen, Tom Jones, Jon Conrad, Gregg Johnson, Rob Gehringer, David Northrup, JD Williams, Jeremy Haroldson, Dan Zwonitzer, Jackie Van Mark, and Cody Wylie.</p></div> </div> </p></span> </div> </div> <p><i>This story is provided by AARP Wyoming.
