Attorney general-elected official.
SF 107 would make the Wyoming Attorney General an elected statewide position starting in the 2022 general election, changing the current system where the governor appoints the role. The bill requires the attorney general to be elected for a four-year term, qualify as a practicing attorney with four years of experience, and be a Wyoming resident. It also updates election procedures to include the attorney general in the ballot order alongside other statewide elected officials like the governor and secretary of state. The change affects all Wyoming voters who will elect the state's chief legal officer and sets new qualifications for the position.
