Wyoming Statutes § 22-23-301 Municipal officers

All candidates for municipal office shall be nominated at the municipal primary election. In order to be eligible, a candidate must be a registered voter and a resident of the municipality and ward which he seeks to represent on the day the petition is filed, and shall not be an employee of the municipality. As used in this section, the term "employee" includes only those persons receiving an hourly wage or salary from a municipality. A person who provides volunteer services to a municipality shall not be considered an "employee" under this section based solely upon coverage under the Wyoming Worker's Compensation Act or other pension, death or disability program.
