Cheney Slammed By Wyoming Voters For Endorsing Kamala Harris

Rep. Liz Cheney, a former Republican from Wyoming, officially endorsed Vice President Harris for the presidency last week. Cheney left the GOP to travel around Wisconsin, a crucial battleground state, supporting the Democratic ticket.

Over the weekend, Fox News Digital visited Casper, Wyoming, to speak with residents about the upcoming election and Cheney’s decision to endorse Harris instead of the Republican presidential candidates. Most voters in the Cowboy State expressed strong disapproval of Cheney’s endorsement, labeling her a “traitor” and a “turncoat.”

“I’m not impressed with that at all,” Clark Johnson told Fox News Digital when asked about his thoughts on Cheney campaigning with Harris last week in Wisconsin.

“I think it’s ridiculous. I think she’s a traitor to the country,” another Wyomingite, Gunner Berg, said of the campaign event.

Cheney is a strong opponent of Trump, which has put her at odds with the Republican Party and her former constituency, which massively backed him in the 2016 and 2020 elections. Cheney is the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney. In this election, Wyoming is predicted to vote red once more.

The overwhelming majority of people in Casper who responded with Fox Digital indicated they didn’t like Cheney and thought her politics made it hard for her to win another political position in Wyoming.

“I’m definitely not a fan, and it definitely kind of turned some tables there,” Dillon Sigman said, adding that he does not believe Cheney could again successfully run for office in Wyoming.

“I think Liz Cheney, who originally was a Wyoming person that moved to Connecticut and then returned to Wyoming wearing cowboy blue jeans and a cowboy rodeo belt buckle and seated herself, completely flipped and became a turncoat. Liz has gone totally Democratic and appears to be down the road of the DEI inclusion and all the other dysfunctional things that are going on in her government,” said a Wyoming resident who identified himself as “Ralph.”

“I support her decision to campaign for whoever she chooses. However, I do not think she is a voice for the Wyoming people. The majority of people I know do not back Kamala Harris or that campaign,” Alicia Kellch told Fox Digital.

According to Kellch, many who first supported Cheney felt “sold out once they got her in office and realized what her true intentions were.” She also stated that it is unlikely that Cheney would be re-elected in Wyoming if she were to pursue this course of action.
