The2000 United States presidential election in Wyoming took place on November 7, 2000, and was part of the2000 United States presidential election. Voters chose three representatives, or electors to theElectoral College, who voted forpresident andvice president.
Wyoming was won by incumbentTexas GovernorGeorge W. Bush by a massive 40.06% margin of victory, and his 67.76% of the popular vote made the state his strongest victory in the 2000 election.[1] He was accompanied on the Republican ticket by vice presidential nomineeDick Cheney, formerly a member of theU.S. House of Representatives from Wyoming's at-large district.
As of the2024 presidential election[update], this is the last time a Republican wonTeton County, and thus is also the last time a nominee of any party carried every county in the state, even though subsequent Republican nominees such asDonald Trump have exceeded Bush's share of the overall vote in Wyoming.
