CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — The Wyoming Democratic Party won't field candidates in two statewide races in the November general election.

The state canvassing board last week certified that Casper City Council member Keith Goodenough had received enough write-in votes in the Aug. 17 primary to become the Democratic nominee for state auditor.

The board also certified that Worth Christie, a Casper insurance agent, received enough write-in votes to run as a Democrat for state treasurer.

Peggy Nighswonger is state elections director. She says neither Goodenough or Christie accepted the board's invitation to file as candidates by Tuesday's deadline.
