One more note... Americans Elect which is a well funded organization that is petitioning for a place on the ballot in all 50 states and DC, has not begun its drive in Wyoming yet. They are doing all the large states with long petitioning periods first to save money on what they have to pay for signatures. The closer you get to the deadline the more professional petitioners usually get paid. That would be another reason to finish up Wyoming as soon as possible.
Wyoming update: as of December 1st the CP has collected 4400 signatures against a requirement of 3740 VALID signatures for ballot access. Americans Elect is also conducting a ballot drive and has collected 5050 signatures. Yet another alternative party called the Country Party is also expected to gain ballot access. This party is an offshoot of the LP which already has ballot status. The Greens have not begun a ballot drive as yet.

Thanks for the update. I saw a little of the Wyoming speaker on vimeo from the autumn CST conference. I borrowed the word "campaign" that the speaker encouraged people to use.
I would encourage the petitioners to try the Univ. of Wyoming campus (again, if needed). Lots of young people open to new ideas.....
Wyoming is now ballot qualified for 2012.
