Governor Mead Finishes First Year In Office

Governor Matt Mead has finished his first year as Wyoming's 32nd governor. He says after wrestling with several issues, he is hitting his stride. Mead had to deal with spring flooding around the state, striking a deal with the federal government over ending protections for gray wolves and drafting a proposed budget for the Legislature. Mead, 49, had no experience in elective office before narrowly winning the Republican Party nomination last year. He spent $1.4 million, most of it his own money, to win the four-way battle.
