On Tuesday, Johnson County voters went to the polls for the state’s primary election, choosing the Republican nominees who will appear on the November general ballot. The results, released by the Johnson County Clerk, show a clear slate of candidates advancing across the county’s key races.
State House District 40
In the race for the Wyoming House of Representatives, District 40, voters selected Marilyn Connolly over Mark Jones. Connolly will represent the district as the Republican nominee in the November election.
Mayor of Buffalo
Incumbent Mayor Shane Schrader faced a primary challenge from Bob Hancock. Both Schrader and Hancock secured enough votes to move on to the general election, setting up a November contest for the city’s top office.
Buffalo City Council
For the Buffalo City Council, incumbent Myra Camino and challenger Craig Rucki each earned a place on the November ballot. Their advancement means the council race will be decided by the county’s electorate later this year.
