Driskill apparently not crazy enough for Wyoming Senate District 1

Ogden Driskill is an obese Earth hater Wyoming legislator running cattle near Devils Tower National Monument in the Belle Fourche River watershed. But the Crook County Republican Party thinks State Senator Driskill isn't rabid enough saying he only votes with his party fifty percent of the time.

Driskill, who has held leadership positions, including being the Senate Majority Floor Leader, has been a state senator for a dozen years. He represents Crook and parts of Weston and Campbell Counties and is running for his fourth term in the Senate. In addition to the write-in campaign of Roger Connett, the former chair of the Crook County Republican Party also faced another write-in challenge, and despite that candidate saying he didn't endorse the effort, it continued, but has since fizzled out. "I think it's unbelievably negative," he said. "I've never seen anything hold fail to it on any fronts. The local party has basically invited Washington style politics to Wyoming because that's really what's fallout of this is--lots of name calling, lots of misinformation, lots of flat out lies."

Driskill has adamantly resisted renaming America's first national monument and Senators Cynthia Lummis and co-sponsor John Barrasso have introduced a bill to permanently cancel Indigenous culture by blocking the name Bear's Lodge or Mahto Tipila in the occupied Wyoming Black Hills.

In the late 1980s and early 90s this interested party called on Driskill's late brother, Matt and their mother, Ellen when they operated the KOA at the Tower.
