TORRINGTON – The 2024 General Election Post-Election Audit was conducted on November 7 in the Goshen County Clerk’s Office. 

The audit involved reviewing a sample of 75 ballots and verifying the actual votes against the reported results for federal races. The list of ballots was compiled using an algorithm developed by the University of Wyoming, which is then utilized by the Wyoming Secretary of State to run and distribute the random sampling.

The 75 randomly selected ballots were reviewed by Goshen County Clerk Mary Feagler and her staff, and all 75 ballots were found to be accurate with no discrepancies.

Feagler informed those in attendance that 279 ballots were cast on the Monday before the election, setting a record for the highest number of ballots cast on a single day during early voting. 

A total of 6,214 ballots were cast in Goshen County. County. 

With 6,832 registered voters, that represents an over 90% turnout which is higher than average and higher than the 2020 general election.
The school board votes were recounted on November 6.

 A recount was required by statute because the margin between the winning school board candidate who received the fewest votes and the losing school board candidate who received the most votes among the unsuccessful candidates was less than 1%. 

The recount did not result in any changes to the school board race results.
No issues were raised during the general election regarding election security or proper voting procedures. 

The system functioned as intended. Election officials noted one instance in which a voter requested a mail-in ballot from Goshen County but later attempted to vote in person in another county. 

The voter was immediately identified, and the issue was resolved before the vote took place.
“I believe in the election integrity in Wyoming. 

We didn’t have any problems, and I feel confident in the accuracy of the election results,” Feagler stated, reflecting on the audit and the general election process.
