    Oct 20, 2018

    LARAMIE (WNE) — A legislative task force charged with overhauling the University of Wyoming’s dormitories met seven times starting May 1 — with four more informal conference calls — but the task force ended its formal meetings Thursday without producing a bill to finance new dorms in 2019. The task force, consisting of legislators, UW administrators and other state leaders, is still in the process of finalizing a report filled with recommendations. However, it will now be the responsibility of the Select Committee on Capital Financing and Inv...

    Nick Reynolds, Casper Star-Tribune-WNE|Oct 20, 2018

    CASPER — More than 12,500 Wyoming voters changed their party affiliation this summer, new numbers from the Wyoming Secretary of State’s office show. The long-awaited data, which covered a period between July 6 and Sept. 20, addresses the question of crossover voting — or the practice of members switching their party affiliation on Election Day to influence the result of another party — and its influence on the election. In Wyoming, it is legal to register to vote or change your party at your polling place on the day of the election. Many co...

    Karla Pomeroy, editor|Oct 20, 2018

    The Wyoming Secretary of State’s office released numbers this week announcing that more than 12,000 people changed their party affiliation this year from July 6 and Sept. 20. After the primary election on Aug. 21, governor candidate Foster Friess said the state needed to repeal its law that allows voters to change party affiliation. He said this because of a group that lobbied for Democrats to change their party affiliation and vote Republican for Mark Gordon. Because of Friess’ comments and the attention it garnered regarding party affiliation...

  • Hear Me Out...NBA goes all in on the G League

    Alex Kuhn, Sports Editor|Oct 20, 2018

    Thursday the NBA announced its new plan to bolster the NBA G-League by offering elite high school players (AKA the one-and-done players) $125K to play one season in the G-League before entering the NBA draft. Immediately after the announcement, the hot takes were flowing like the Big Horn River in the spring. By and far the favorite hot take was the move being the NBA's way of killing the NCAA and the JBA (Junior Basketball Association, LaVar Ball's sham semi-pro league) in one fell swoop. Both...

  • Warriors offense cannot get going in 23-9 loss to Lander

    Alex Kuhn, Sports Editor|Oct 20, 2018

    LANDER — It is not how you want to enter the 3A State football playoffs, but the Worland Warriors football team has to quickly shake off their Friday night 23-9 loss to the Lander Valley Tigers at Lander Valley High School. “We had trouble putting it all together,” said WHS football coach Ryan Utterback. “We’d do some good things, get a nice chunk of plays but have a penalty or miscue that pushed us back. We executed at times but could not put enough together that translated into scores. O...
