Ross Davenport

Ross Davenport brings a private-sector engineer’s discipline and a University of Wyoming educator’s perspective to House District 45. He asks who pays, what could fail, and how any policy will work on the ground in Laramie.
He advanced from the Republican primary on August 18, 2026, and is focused on three practical commitments.
First, strong public schools. Wyoming’s constitutional promise to every student requires stable funding, competitive educators, safe classrooms, parental transparency, and accountability kept close to local communities.
Second, accountable growth that protects water and infrastructure. Responsible investment is welcome when major projects disclose their demands, cover the infrastructure costs they create, and keep those costs off families and local ratepayers.
Third, affordability for homeowners and renters. Homeowners need protection from unpredictable property tax increases. Fair, enforceable rules for responsible owners and tenants can ease household pressure without statewide rent control.
He also wants education, trades, apprenticeships, the University of Wyoming, and local employers better connected so more people can build careers and raise families here. Reliable energy, practical access to public lands, constitutional rights, and local control complete the picture.
Ross Davenport will take an engineer’s focus on results and an educator’s care for the next generation to Cheyenne, keeping government answerable to the people who live in District 45.
