When incumbent Republican Representative Harlan Edmonds announced his retirement, Lone declared his candidacy. He defeated Clarence Styvar in the Republican primary.[2] Edmonds then announced he would resign in order to move out of the district. Laramie County Commissioners appointed Lone to fill the remainder of Edmonds' term. He was sworn in August 30, 2016.

Lone faced former Democratic Representative Lee Filer in the general election and defeated Filer with 53.6% of the vote.[3]
