What's at stake

For the country

  • This seat is held by Republicans. A Democratic win would be a flip, one of the 4 net gains Democrats need to reach 51 seats and take control.
  • A Republican hold keeps it in the column that protects the current 53-seat majority.
  • Senate control decides which judges and cabinet nominees are confirmed and whether the President's bills can pass.

For Wyoming

  • Senators vote on every federal law, confirm Supreme Court justices, federal judges and cabinet members, and ratify treaties. Terms last six years.
  • It is an open seat, so there is no incumbent advantage this year.

Harriet Hageman

  • Supporters say a Republican senator would keep taxes low and protect recent tax cuts.
  • They argue for tighter border security and stricter immigration enforcement.
  • They favour expanding domestic energy production and cutting federal regulation.

James Byrd

  • Supporters say a Democratic senator would push to lower health-care costs and protect the Affordable Care Act.
  • They argue for restoring federal abortion protections and expanding voting access.
  • They favour raising taxes on the highest earners and corporations to fund programs.

Arguments are summarised at party level from each side's stated priorities, not quotes from the candidates.
