Here is the fiftieth state in my effort to collect important facts and the history of each state’s presidential voting history.  When November 6 arrives and we all cast our votes, just click on “states of the union” in the category section to the right and (in alphabetical order) you can check out a brief history of each state, how many electoral votes they have, and other important information.

Stats and facts about the state of Wyoming:
  • Wyoming was the forty-fourth state to join the union on July 10, 1890, six years before Utah and one week after Idaho.
  • Population, as of 2010, is 563,626.
  • Senators are John Barrasso (R) and Michael Enzi (R).
  • Representative is Cynthia Lummis (R).
  • Wisconsin has three electoral votes.  Historically, the state has voted Democratic only once since 1952 (Lyndon Johnson in 1964).  In 2008, McCain defeated Obama by 32%, his widest margin of victory.  One last interesting fact, Wyoming has the smallest population in the Union and is, therefore, the most over-represented state in the electoral college.

322.5 miles to go.

Here is what happened one year ago on Day207.
