Wyoming Sen. Craig Thomas Dies at 74

WASHINGTON (Fox News) - The balance of power in the Senate will not change because of the death of Republican Sen. Craig Thomas because state law in Wyoming requires the governor to let the party with the vacancy recommend a successor.

Thomas, a conservative, died after a fight with leukemia that was diagnosed last year just as he was elected for a third term. He was 74.
