What are the three branches of Wyoming's government as established by the state constitution?

• A. Legislative, Executive, and Judicial
• B. Legislative, Judicial, and Municipal
• C. Executive, Judicial, and Administrative
• D. Legislative, Executive, and Administrative

Answer: (A)

Wyoming’s constitution organizes government using three separate powers, a system of separation of powers. The legislative branch is the body that makes laws, typically a bicameral legislature in Wyoming. The executive branch enforces laws and is led by the governor and associated state agencies. The judicial branch interprets laws and resolves disputes through the court system.

Municipal refers to local city or town governments, not a branch of the state government, and administrative is not listed as a separate branch in the Wyoming Constitution. So the three branches established by the state constitution are the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial.
