Who has the power to override a governor's veto in Wyoming?

• A. The Supreme Court
• B. The President
• C. The Legislature
• D. The voters in a general election

Answer: (C)

In Wyoming, the power to override a governor’s veto rests with the Legislature. If the governor vetoes a bill, it can still become law if both chambers—the House and the Senate—pass the bill again with a two-thirds vote of all members elected to each house. That supermajority requirement ensures that a veto isn’t easily overridden and reflects a careful check on executive power. The other branches—the judiciary or the president—do not have a direct role in overriding a state veto, and voters don’t override a veto in a general election; they can influence laws only through other processes like constitutional amendments or ballot measures, not by overturning a single veto directly.
