Notes

  1. The Wyoming Blue Book, Volume II lists Esperson as having been a Populist or Prohibitionist, but this makes no sense. Esperson's votes match those of Wood and Cook exactly except for one precinct in Sheridan County; this almost certainly indicates that his votes were on the same ticket as those of Wood and Cook. Moreover, Esperson was on the Socialist ticket as a presidential elector in 1904. Thus, there was no Populist or Prohibition vote in Wyoming in 1900.
  2. Based on totals for highest elector on each ticket
  3. Based on highest elector on each ticket
  4. These votes are not listed in the statewide summary; they can be found in the precinct detail for Sheridan County on pg. 59 of the source.
