This week on the podcast, Bob and Alexis dig into one of the most serious accountability stories to come out of Weston County in years — Governor Mark Gordon’s decision to formally ask the Wyoming Attorney General to begin the process of removing Weston County Clerk Becky Hadlock from office.

Governor Gordon initially declined to pursue Hadlock’s removal following his first investigation in May, but reversed course after receiving a new formal complaint from Weston County voters citing the false audit and her refusal to comply with a legislative subpoena. Secretary of State Chuck Gray also filed a complaint and requested Hadlock’s removal, though that request became entangled in a broader and very public feud between Gray and the governor.

With Gordon and Gray now aligned on the Hadlock issue, the conversation closes with a look ahead — and a challenge. Bob and Alexis argue that Wyoming voters deserve a clear choice, and that this year’s race for Wyoming’s lone seat in the U.S. House could be the long-anticipated showdown between the Freedom Caucus and the Wyoming Caucus, with Chuck Gray already in the race and Governor Gordon uniquely positioned to settle the score at the ballot box.
