The Senate Chamber of the Wyoming State Capitol in Cheyenne was the site Tuesday for a swearing in ceremony for Bob Ide of Casper as a member of the 66th Wyoming Legislature. Wyoming Supreme Court Justice Kari Jo Gray administered the oath of office and Vice President of the Senate Larry Hicks presided over the ceremony. Shortly following the administration of the oath of office, Ide briefly addressed those in attendance by saying that he’s truly honored to be appointed as a senator to Senate District 29, and he will do his best to serve Natrona County and the State of Wyoming.
The Natrona County Commissioners appointed Ide on November 29 to fill the vacant Senate District 29 seat formerly held by Senator Drew Perkins, who resigned from his seat on November 10 to accept the appointment as Chief of State for Governor Mark Gordon. Senator Ide was elected to Senate District 29 in the 2022 General Election and will represent Senate District 29 for the remainder of the current term until his new term starts on January 10, 2023.
