As Rep. Liz Cheney continues her role as chief spokesperson for the January 6 Select Committee, her hopes for reelection in Wyoming are fading. The Republican primary in the state is on August 16, 2022, and Cheney has a serious primary challenger. Harriet Hageman is an attorney who prosecuted cases related to water and natural resources. President Trump’s team recruited her to run against Cheney, and he endorsed her. In 2014, Hageman was part of the leadership team on Cheney’s campaign for the Senate. The Cheney and Hageman families are longtime allies.
Times change and Hageman has run an aggressive campaign. A Club for Growth poll in late May showed a 30-point lead for Hageman among Republican primary voters. According to Politico, the polling confirmed data that Club for Growth collected in April 2021, when 52% of GOP primary voters said they would vote against Cheney no matter who ran against her. Trump won the state in 2020 by 16 points.
Needless to say, Cheney’s tedious droning during the televised January 6 committee hearings is not increasing her popularity among Republican primary voters in Wyoming. It is becoming increasingly evident she has disdain for her own voters. So how is a career politician who has enriched herself for years by sending our sons and daughters overseas to fight in pointless foreign wars supposed to maintain power and relevance?
