Wyoming Sports Betting

Wyoming sportsbooks cover most of what you would expect to find in a legal U.S. market. That includes professional and college sports, Olympic and international events, amateur competitions, esports and approved player-performance markets.

For everyday betting, that means NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL and major college games, along with moneylines, spreads, totals, props, futures, parlays, same-game parlays and live betting. The exact menu depends on the sportsbook and the event, so you may find a market at DraftKings that FanDuel or BetMGM doesn’t post, and vice versa.

Wyoming Cowboys games are fair game, too. You can bet approved college markets involving the state’s biggest program, although each sportsbook decides which eligible props and other markets it wants to offer.

Limits vary in much the same way. Wyoming doesn’t set one maximum wager for everyone. Sportsbooks establish their own limits under Commission-approved rules, and those limits can change by sport and market. A Sunday NFL spread may take a much bigger wager than a niche NCAAF prop.

Wyoming also has fewer licensed sportsbooks than nearby Colorado, which leaves you with fewer lines to compare. That doesn’t mean the odds are automatically worse, but it makes checking the available price at each Wyoming book more important before you place the bet.

Wyoming 2026 Midterm Elections: Key Races and What to Watch

Wyoming’s November ballot has an unusual feature: all three of its top races are open. Gov. Mark Gordon is term-limited, Sen. Cynthia Lummis is retiring, and Rep. Harriet Hageman is running for Lummis’s seat, which leaves the state’s lone U.S. House seat open too. A citizen-led property tax measure, Proposition 1, has become the issue campaigns are being fought over.

Voters decide on Tuesday, Nov. 3. For the national picture, see our politics coverage. You can also trade on Wyoming’s governor, U.S. Senate and U.S. House races through prediction markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket, where available.

Candidate ratings reflect the major nonpartisan race forecasters as of Oct. 21, 2026, and the House row shows where they differ. Proposition 1 is not rated because there is little polling or market pricing on it to draw on.

Who’s running for Wyoming governor in 2026?

Republican state Sen. Eric Barlow is the heavy favorite to become Wyoming’s next governor. All three major forecasters rate the race solidly Republican, and prediction markets on Kalshi and Polymarket also treat the Republican nominee as a heavy favorite. Barlow, a Gillette veterinarian and rancher who served as speaker of the Wyoming House, faces Democrat Kenneth Casner, who is making his third run for governor, and Rebecca Bextel of the Constitution Party.

The seat is open because Gordon is term-limited after two terms. Democrats have not won a statewide race in Wyoming since 2006, and Gordon won re-election in 2022 with about three-quarters of the vote. Barlow earned the nomination in August with roughly 45% of the Republican primary vote, beating state Superintendent of Public Instruction Megan Degenfelder, who had President Trump’s endorsement, and former candidate Brent Bien, who had the state Republican Party’s endorsement.

The final weeks of the governor’s race give two things to watch. The first is how much support Bextel draws from Republicans unhappy with Barlow’s record. At the Oct. 14 televised debate she spent most of her time attacking him as a career insider, and he largely declined to respond. The second is Proposition 1. Barlow is the only candidate who has come out against it, Casner did not take a position, and Bextel wants property taxes eliminated, so the measure gives voters a clear point of difference in an otherwise lopsided race.

Will Wyoming’s Proposition 1 property tax cut pass?

Wyoming voters will decide Proposition 1 on Nov. 3. The citizen initiative would exempt 50% of the assessed value of a primary residence from property tax. It is the first initiative to reach the Wyoming ballot in 30 years, after backers led by Bien, who lost the Republican governor’s primary, collected roughly 30,000 signatures. No rating is given here because there is little public polling or market pricing on the measure to draw on.

The exemption would apply to the home itself rather than the land under it, and to people who have lived in Wyoming for at least a year and in the home for at least six months. It would work as an alternative to the 25% homeowner exemption lawmakers passed in 2025, so a homeowner would pick one. Wyoming already has a 4% annual cap on property tax increases and a 50% exemption for long-term homeowners age 65 and older, and the state’s relief programs reduced taxes and refunds by more than $215 million in 2025. Property taxes in Wyoming fund local schools, community colleges, counties, fire districts and other local services rather than the state budget, which is why the debate centers on what happens to that money.

Supporters, including the state Republican Party, which has pledged financial and marketing support, say bills rose sharply after the pandemic and that local governments can trim spending. Opponents include Gordon, who warned in an op-ed this month that the cut would hit local services hard, as well as Barlow, teachers, hospitals, community colleges, realtors, a taxpayers’ association and business groups. They argue the measure has no plan to replace the lost revenue. The opposition campaign reported close to $1 million on hand in September.

Several things will shape the vote before Election Day. Estimates of the lost local revenue vary, and the measure does not say how the Legislature would respond, so the final weeks are likely to center on messaging and turnout. An analysis by legislative staff found roughly a quarter of the exemption’s benefit would go to Teton County, the state’s wealthiest county, and that point has become part of the argument from opponents.

Who will win Wyoming’s U.S. House seat in 2026?

Republican Chuck Gray, Wyoming’s secretary of state, is the favorite for the state’s lone U.S. House seat, but the race has tightened in the ratings. Two of the three major forecasters rate it solidly Republican. The third moved it from Solid to Likely Republican in October, pointing to an unpopular president and a divisive Republican nominee. Prediction markets on Kalshi and Polymarket in mid-October still gave Gray roughly a 93% and a 97% chance, respectively, though trading in the House markets is light.

Gray faces Democrat Lisa Kinney, a Laramie native who served ten years in the state Senate, including two as minority leader, Libertarian Shawn Johnson, an Army veteran and attorney, and Jeff Haggit of the Constitution Party. The seat is open because Hageman is running for the Senate, and Wyoming has not sent a Democrat to the U.S. House in 50 years. Gray won the August Republican primary in a crowded field with about a quarter of the vote, and Trump endorsed him in early October.

Several developments could move the race in the final two weeks. Gray skipped the televised House debate, and his opponents have made that an issue. His campaign and allied outside groups have turned to late advertising, including an affordability ad, while an outside group has aired an attack ad on Kinney. National polling has shown Democrats ahead on the congressional ballot, and Johnson says he is pulling votes from disaffected Republicans and independents. Public lands are also in play, since both Kinney and Gray say they want them kept in public hands.

Who’s running for U.S. Senate in Wyoming in 2026?

Republican Rep. Harriet Hageman is the heavy favorite for Wyoming’s open U.S. Senate seat. All three major forecasters rate the race solidly Republican, and prediction markets also treat her as a heavy favorite. Hageman is running after Lummis announced in December 2025 that she would not seek a second term. She won the August Republican primary with roughly 65% of the vote and faces Democrat James Byrd, a former state representative from Cheyenne. Democrats have not won a Senate race in Wyoming since 1970.

The one televised Senate debate planned for October was canceled after Hageman did not respond to the invitation, and Byrd has challenged her to debate anyway. Her campaign says she will hold town halls in every county instead.
