Trump endorsement fades as Wyoming GOP nominates Barlow over Degenfelder
State Sen. Eric Barlow defeated Trump-backed Megan Degenfelder in Wyoming’s gubernatorial primary, marking another setback for former President Donald Trump’s endorsements in GOP races. Barlow ran on protecting public lands, funding public schools, and expanding rural health care, while Degenfelder leaned heavily on Trump’s backing and faced attack ads portraying Barlow as too liberal. The outcome follows a string of recent Trump-backed defeats in governor and other races.
