Obenshain won the attorney general race with 55% of both the weighted vote and the raw vote.

It was a high turnout election, and Sour got more raw votes that year than in any previous election.

Their raw vote went up by just under 25,000, from 2,740,972 in 1986 to 2,765,761 last Sunday.

Reelected in 2002, she led the statewide Republican ticket in terms of raw votes.

Hansen's 1972 raw vote was the first to surpass 100,000 in Wyoming history.

On the other hand, who needs raw votes and crusty state chairmen when we can have a horse race?

She would be re-elected in 2001 winning a higher raw popular vote than Lougheed won in 1982.

MSN refused to release the raw vote counts so no independent analysis of the situation was possible.

"We won in the raw votes and the court took it away from us."

The raw vote was 9,512 (30 percent) to 9,188 (29 percent).
