Wyoming Treasurer Curt Meier won the GOP nomination Tuesday over Freedom Caucus challenger Rep. Scott Smith of Lingle.

Meier does not have a Democratic challenger for the Nov. 3 general election.

A former state senator, Meier in 2018 defeated Leland Christensen for the GOP nomination for that seat before going on to nearly triple the vote count of his Democratic opponent, Chris Lowry.

Meier has won reelection once since, beating GOP challenger Bill Gallop in 2022.

He declared his reelection via a press release in March with a followup press release in May.

Smith declared his run months after Meier's office posted record-high revenues for the state.
