CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - The race to succeed Wyoming Secretary of State Max Maxfield is becoming even more crowded.
Cheyenne businessman Ed Murray announced Monday that he’s running for the secretary of state position. The 56-year-old Republican is owner of a Cheyenne based real estate investment and development company.
Murray joins four other Republicans who have said they will run. They are former Republican state legislators Ed Buchanan of Torrington and Pete Illoway of Cheyenne. Current Republican State Rep. Dan Zwonitzer of Cheyenne and Clark Stith, a former Sweetwater County Republican chairman, also are running.
Maxfield announced recently that he won’t seek a third term even though he had won a court victory overturning a state law that set term limits for the position.
