Campaign calls draw scrutiny

CHEYENNE -- Wyoming Secretary of State Joe Meyer will ask local and federal prosecutors to look into allegations of illegal automated campaign calls before last week's general election.

Meyer's office received three complaints about illegal calls linked to the contentious U.S. House race and the race for governor.

Meanwhile, the spokeswoman for Democrat Gary Trauner's apparently unsuccessful U.S. House campaign said illegal calls may have influenced that race. Linda Stoval said stronger laws are needed to prevent future violations.
