Rep. Liz Cheney (R) leads a field of declared and potential GOP Senate contenders by 20 points in the race to replace retiring Sen. Mike Enzi (R) in Wyoming, according to a new poll from Montana State University Billings.
The House Republican Conference Chairwoman, who has not yet said whether she will run for Senate, garnered 37 percent support in the survey, compared to 17 percent support for second-placed former Rep. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), who has already filed to run for the Senate seat.
Others were polling in single digits, including GOP mega-donor Foster Friess, who is also weighing a bid. Thirty-eight percent of those polled said they remain undecided.
Speculation has grown over whether Cheney, the No. 3 Republican in the House, will enter the open Senate race or look to continue to climb in the leadership ranks in the lower chamber.
Under the rules of the House Republican Conference, Cheney — the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney — would have to vacate her leadership position after formally declaring herself a candidate for Senate.

I like her, but sometimes she’s a pain in the @ss.
That’s a shame.
She is a Bush League Republican still committed to securing every border in the world but ours.
Wyoming going the way Utah....
For goodness sake, find a local to represent your state in the Senate.
What’s her take on the impeachment?
That’ll clear things up.
Not for Johnny One Note...
The cheney cabal/dynasty rearing it’s head? LOL!
Sadly, she went tribal on Trump. Hopefully a conservative STEPS UP to take that seat.
I admit I don’t follow every action of everyone. But I thought Liz was a strong conservative? Is she too liberal for us?
If her investment portfolio is similar to her dad, she’ll be voting to have us in the Middle East forever
The Cheneys aren't from Wyoming?
Liz Cheney has a leadership post in the House...hopefully that will keep her there.

You enjoy the open borders?
A future as Speaker would be worse than 1 of 100 Senators.
I’m ok with Liz. If she’s that far ahead, she should go for it. We can’t afford to lose a Senate seat.
If a Republican loses a Senate election in Wyoming it’s because they were caught in bed with the proverbial live boy and dead girl...
Agreed
The article fails to note that this is the Republican primary only. Quite frankly, journalistic malpractice as the same poll polled Wyoming Democrats on thier pretence.
The article also buries the fact that undecideds lead with 38% to her 37%.
And as typical I had to dig for the original source.

Sad. Just another neocon like her dad. And a carpetbagger to boot.
Liz is a DC girl.
