Nellie Tayloe Ross was elected in 1924 and served two years. In 1870 Louisa Swain, a resident of Laramie, became the first woman to legally cast a vote in a general election. The Electoral College allocates electoral votes based on the size of each state’s congressional delegation. Since Wyoming has two Senators and one House member, the state casts 3 electoral votes in presidential elections, the smallest number possible. California, the most populous state, casts 55 electoral votes. If Wyoming’s population grew significantly the state could be granted more representatives in the U.S. House and gain more electoral votes. Red is frequently used to represent Republicans and blue is frequently used for Democrats. An elephant and donkey are also used to represent each party.
