Rep. Liz Cheney Soliciting Votes From Democrats

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) is starting to ask Democrats to switch parties and vote for her, as she faces a tough primary battle with a candidate endorsed by former President Donald Trump.

Cheney’s campaign website recently added a section that asks and answers questions about voting.

It notes that voters must be registered as a Republican to vote for Cheney in the Aug. 16 primary.

“How do I change my party affiliation to register as a Republican so I can vote for Liz?” the website states, before telling voters how to change their affiliation.

Under Wyoming law, voters can submit an application by mail to change their party up to 14 days before an election. They can also change their affiliation while at a polling place on the day of the primary election.

Cheney’s campaign has also been mailing forms that outline how to change parties to Democrat voters, Joseph Barbuto, the chairman of the Wyoming Democratic Party, told The New York Times.

Barbuto himself got one in the mail.

“I haven’t had any Republicans share online or tell me that they received it,” Barbuto told the paper.

In February, Cheney said that she would not undertake such an effort.

“That is not something that I have contemplated, that I have organized or that I will organize,” she said at the time.

“Liz Cheney told the New York Times that she wouldn’t be encouraging Democrats to raid the Republican primary, but I guess the drive to hold onto power is just too strong for her to keep her word,” Carly Miller, campaign manager for lawyer Harriet Hageman, who is challenging Cheney in the primary, told The Epoch Times in an email.

“What Cheney doesn’t understand is that Democrats will drop her like a bad habit after she’s no longer useful to them on the January 6th Committee. She’s in No Man’s Land—Democrats just see her as a temporary tool, while Republicans are fed up with her completely,” Miller added.

Cheney’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment.
