This year Wyoming's seat in the senate is up for the taking. U.S. Senator Craig Thomas is running for a third term. He only has two challengers: Dale Groutage (D), William "Greybeard" McPherson (I).
The Candidates
(R) Craig Thomas, U.S. Senator 1995-Present, Fmr. U.S. Congressman 1989-1995, Fmr. Member of the State House of Representitives 1985-1989, Vice President of the Wyoming Farm Bureau, General Manager of the Rural Electric Association
(D) Dale Groutage, College Engineer & Proffessor, Scientist
(I)William "Greybeard" McPherson, Blue Coller Worker, Army Veteran
(L)Dave Herbert It is uncertain that he is running and their isn't any info. about him.
According to most polls Sen. Thomas will win in a landslide of at least 30 points. He holds the state record of recieveing votes by getting 72% of the vote in 2000. Groutage might put up a little bit bigger of a challenge but Thomas will win. There isn't any primary for the senate with no primary challenges so the three above will be on the November ballot. There was speculation that Thomas would run for governor but he decided against it. he also was under consideration for the job of U.S. Secreatry of the Interior. He refused and said he can better serve the nation where he was.
My Prediction
(R)Thomas 74%
(D)Groutage 25%
(I)McPherson 1%
(It is uncertain that Herbert is running)
Actual Polls
Rasmussen Reports
(R)Thomas 59%
(D)Groutage 32%
