The polls for the 2026 Primary Election closed this evening at 7 PM. The Fremont County Clerk’s Office will begin posting unofficial results on the County’s website as they become available. Returns from each Voting Center in the County, including from as far as Dubois and Shoshoni, are brought to Election Central at the Fremont County Courthouse in Lander before being uploaded to the website. (State/legislative result summaries can also be viewed here.)
County 10 will update the fields below throughout the night as the unofficial results from each Voting Center are uploaded to the County website in the order they are returned; we will also share which Voting Centers have reported. Note: The returns will be labeled “Incomplete” until all Voting Centers have submitted their unofficial results and the Clerk’s Office has finalized them.
Once all of the Voting Centers have submitted their returns and the unofficial results are finalized, which can occur between 9 PM and 10 PM or later, this post will be edited to indicate as much, and the races will be updated from “Incomplete” to “Finalized.”
Barring any issues or recounts, the local unofficial results will be certified on Thursday, August 20 at 1 PM, in the Fremont County Commissioners’ Chambers at the Courthouse, located at 450 N 2nd Street. The public is invited to attend.
County 10 will provide more in-depth coverage of results in the coming days. For all of County 10’s 2026 Primary Election coverage and forthcoming write-ups, click here.
