Governor Gordon issues executive order on 'election integrity'

CASPER, Wyo. — Citing the perceived impacts of federal policy, Governor Mark Gordon issued an Executive Order Thursday aimed at ensuring that no state agency provides non-U.S. citizens with voter registration materials. It also directs those agencies to stand on those principals when dealing with federal agencies and to report any suspected instances of non-resident voting.

“Recognizing the Biden/Harris Administration’s disastrous border policies compel us to do all we can to protect the integrity of our elections, I, alongside fellow Republican Governors, have taken the action afforded to me by the Constitution and the Laws of Wyoming to confirm the security of Wyoming’s elections,” Governor Gordon said in a release on Thursday.

“I remain confident Wyoming’s elections are the most secure in the nation,” Gordon added. “As required by the laws enacted by the legislature, our county clerks are thorough and diligent when determining, investigating and verifying voter citizenship. With this Executive Order, I reaffirm my commitment to that ideal.”

Secretary of State Chuck Gray released a statement in support of the order, but said Gordon was still leaving election integrity measures on the table.
