Mark Gordon is one of the most popular and richest Cattle Rancher who was born on March 14, 1957 in New York City, New York City, United States. Mark Gordon (born March 14, 1957) is an American politician serving as the 33rd governor of Wyoming since 2019. A member of the Republican Party, he previously served as state treasurer; he was appointed to that position by then-Governor Matt Mead on October 26, 2012, to fill the vacancy created by the death of Joseph Meyer.
In 2008, Gordon was an unsuccessful candidate in the Republican primary for the United States House of Representatives for Wyoming’s at-large congressional district seat held by Cynthia Lummis, also a former state treasurer and the wife of a Democratic former state representative, Alvin Wiederspahn. Former U.S. senator Alan K. Simpson of Cody, considered a moderate Republican, defended Gordon’s candidacy though he stopped short of an outright endorsement because he is also friendly with Lummis. Nevertheless, former U.S. senator Malcolm Wallop did endorse Gordon as did the late Joseph B. Meyer, who was serving as state treasurer at the time.
Gordon was elected to a full term as treasurer in the 2014 Republican primary election.
As state treasurer, Gordon had success modernizing and professionalizing the office of state treasurer. Working with voters and the Wyoming Legislature, Gordon helped craft an amendment to Wyoming’s Constitution which would allow the Legislature to designate certain funds of the State to be invested in stocks as well as bonds. The amendment passed in 2016.
Gordon met his current wife, the former Jennie Muir Young, in 1998 and they were married in 2000. Together they own the Merlin Ranch east of Buffalo, also in Johnson County, Wyoming. In 2009, their ranch received the Society for Range Management Wyoming Section “Excellence in Rangeland Stewardship” award. They have four grown children: two sons and two daughters.
