Governor Gordon Receives Complaint Regarding Hot Springs County Commissioners

CHEYENNE, Wyo. - Oct. 21,2025 - The Governor traveled to Thermopolis Friday, October 17, 2025, to begin the statutorily-prescribed process of investigating a verified complaint received from seven qualified electors of Hot Springs County alleging acts of misconduct or malfeasance by two Hot Springs County Commissioners, Commissioner Galovich and Commissioner Aguiar, and requesting their removal from office. The Governor’s Office will examine the verified complaint and conduct a thorough investigation to determine whether the allegations justify pursuing the requested statutory removal process.

Given the very serious nature of the potential consequences involved, removal of county commissioners duly elected by the voters of Hot Springs County, preserving the objectivity and integrity of this process is crucial. Consequently, the Governor will have no comment on this investigation while it is ongoing, focusing instead on reviewing and determining relevant facts.
