Can Wyoming Democrats save Liz Cheney/

[Stinky The Clown]

I understand they can cross over to vote in the Republican primary.

Perhaps a combination of Democrats and Independent crossover votes and possible low GOP turnout could squeak it out for her.

1. Sadly that "trick" usually doesn't work

It would depend on how motivated Democrats are to vote for Liz in the R primary.

We had a state rep here that it worked for, but it was a smaller district and it's a wealthy, urban district where everyone knows everyone.

Liz is polling 29 points behind.

2. No

But no worries, she wins by losing and keeps her honor and integrity. AND if she does put her name in the hat for the Presidential nomination, no way she wins as MAGAt's will no way vote for her thus splitting the eventual vote.

[msfiddlestix]

23. I really believe that is her plan all along. I think she'll end up running as an Independent.

When the Republican party decided to turn themselves into a Trumpist Party, then all bets are off on the standard two party system playbook we've all understood, particularly in Presidential races.

The Trump Cult party torched the playbook and I believe Cheney will campaign to moderate conservatives in both parties.

3. Why should they. She has voted against everything Biden has tried to do for the people EXCEPT

J6 Committee. She is a rotten Republican to the core. She just hates Trump more than she hates Democrats.

[we can do it]

4. Exactly. She's an awful person who finally does one thing right.

5. Wyoming is a one party state

A choice between evil and not so evil

[Sneederbunk]

7. No Dem Rep since 1978.

[MyMission]

16. 69.9% voted for tfg in 2020, up from 67.4% in 2016

The state with the largest rethug numbers. Still, they've demonstrated party loyalty and may not all vote for tfg's nominee.

Don't know how Wyoming primaries are decided, what percentage of votes are needed for victory or if there's a rule about runoffs. I haven't written Liz off yet, and believe anything is possible.

My father used to say "sometimes it's about choosing the lesser of two evils."
It's always that way with the GOPQ.

[JI7]

21. Exactly, that's what politics is. I would vote for her if I was there

but I don't think she could win even if most Democrats voted for her becsuse it is such a deep red area.

[myohmy2]

6. yes...

...patriotic Americans of all stripes can save Liz Cheney...

...I dislike everything she's politically stands for...but this is bigger than partisan politics...

...we need to attack trump and his fascists from all angles...

...our country is at stake...

[Emile]

8. There is not enough democrats in Wyoming

to help her.

[lark]

9. Bad idea.

Liz is for everything that R;s are except sedition.

[budkin]

10. Nope, she's toast

It's just the way it is.

[PJMcK]

11. Why should we?

Rep.Cheney has done an exemplary job in the J6 Committee hearings. She is as disgusted with Trump as we Democrats.

However, on nearly every other issue facing our country, Rep. Cheney is in opposition to our positions. She's not really our ally in government.

Except for one thing: She clearly wants to follow the Constitutional Order and the Rule of Law. I respect her for that. But the rest of her perspective is anathema to my point of view.

She's done her job. If she loses her position, I don't care. The J6 Committee has plenty of other members who can fill her spot, (assuming Democrats retain control of the House).

[303squadron]

12. Let her lose and

run for POTUS as an independent, takes votes away from the former clown guy or de Satan.

[Raine]

13. GAG the idea of saving a Cheney is repulsive. 👎

[mopinko]

14. not only would i vote for her in the primary

unless the dem candidate in the general is a rock star, i'd vote for her of she ran indie.
we only get the choices that are on the ballot, and it's not a bad thing to be practical.

[Just A Box Of Rain]

26. Wyoming has "sore loser" laws so she can't run as an independant.

I'm not sure if she could mount a write-in campaign as Lisa Murkowski did in Alaska?

[bluestarone]

15. My daughter and husband

are helping her!

[LeftInTX]

17. We had a GOP step rep who was helped by Dem

But I live in Texas and this is an wealthy urban district. Old money Eisenhower types, so even within the GOP, the incumbent had decent primary support

He won his last primary, which was 3 way at 60%
Unfortunately, he retired and more conservative took his place.

We also are losing the only other moderate R in the Texas house this election.

[myohmy2]

24. good, I agree...

...I dislike everything she stands for but we can fight those battles later...

...I think we should "take one for the Gipper' because having her and her stature on the Committee and a meaningful anti-trump presence in the puke party is too important for our country's survival and security...

...we must remember, '..the enemy of my enemy.....'

...

[EnergizedLib]

18. I'd rather her seat go blue

I applaud, and thank, her for taking a stand against TFG on January 6, and also voting for same sex marriage and contraception.

However, there’s not much I really agree with her on when it comes to policy. I suppose better her than a MAGAt, but a perfect world is Wyoming has the unlikely awakening and votes D.

[JI7]

19. There probably aren't enough

[pwb]

20. If she was pro choice Women would save her but

she isn't. She could run as an independent and help the seat turn blue for pay back.

[ZonkerHarris]

22. The 16 Democratic votes in the state will not save her.

[pfitz59]

25. No

The vile POS replacing her will have no clout. No worries
