On Oct 1, 2008, there were 233,141 registered voters in Wyoming.  By Nov 4, that number had swelled to 244,818 [1], an increase of 11,677.

On Nov 4, 257,331 [2] ballots were cast in Wyoming.  246,329 [3] people voted for President.

Now, on average, 66% of registered voters voted in 49 states.  However, Wyoming voters were so motivated that 105% voted!

Even more interesting (to me) is that of that 105% of registered voters, 11,002 didn't vote for President (4% of total votes).

Now, for a thought experiment.  If Wyoming were actually in line with the rest of the country, the 246,329 ballots cast for President would be 66% of registrations.  That gives a total registered roll of 373,225.

Now, assuming Wyoming is just like the rest of the country and Wyoming allows same-day registrations, 128,407 people would have had to show up at the polls yesterday, register to vote, and not vote.

Are you really still voting?

UPDATE: 

Holy smokes.  Wyoming has had over a 100% turnout three times in the last ten years [4].  The difference is, this time the total votes cast is comparable to the total population of voting age registered as voters in previous years.
