Wyoming voted 70% for Trump, 22% for Clinton. Also:

"Like most other states of the Mountain West, Wyoming is currently a Republican stronghold in presidential elections, having voted Democratic just once since 1952 – the 1964 landslide victory of Lyndon Johnson over Barry Goldwater."

My take on the funding problem?

TOO BAD, SO SAD. You guys hate taxes, so you should be happy that the big, wonderful corporations that run WY are paying less. I suggest you pull yourselves up by your cowboy bootstraps. Surely you could start a business? Become a day trader? Collect deer antlers?



It makes me want to shoot myself out of frustration -- they want no taxes, and then wonder where all their money to run their towns is going to come from.
