Election recount amendments.
HB 102 amends Wyoming's election law to change how losing candidates request vote recounts. It requires candidates seeking a recount to submit an affidavit with specific facts proving "probable cause" of fraud or error, rather than a general claim. If the affidavit lacks sufficient detail, the request is denied, and candidates may appeal the denial to a court. The bill directly affects losing candidates in elections who wish to challenge results through a recount process. It takes effect July 1, 2023.
