Wyoming rearranges voting districts

Listen to the interview

Every ten years the Wyoming legislature looks at population changes in the state and redraws legislative districts.  But with huge population swings due to the energy boom, that task has proven difficult this year.  Bob Beck talks with Lander Republican Cale Case, the co-chair of the committee redrawing those districts.  Case starts by saying that the western part of the state is a challenge due to major population growth.

Bob Beck retired from Wyoming Public Media after serving as News Director of Wyoming Public Radio for 34 years. During his time as News Director WPR has won over 100 national, regional and state news awards.
