Poll: Liz Cheney’s Political Support Collapses in Wyoming as Primary Challenger Takes Double-Digit Lead
Breitbart ^ | 27 Jan 2021 | Matthew Boyle

House GOP Conference Chairwoman Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) has seen her political support completely collapse in Wyoming as solid majorities of both Republicans and all voters in the state want her out of office, a new poll shows.

What’s more, Cheney has fallen behind her primary challenger by more than double digits, a sharp turn in just weeks against the one-time rising star since she voted to impeach former President Donald Trump.

The poll, conducted by Trump’s team and first reported by Politico, shows 73 percent of Republicans in ruby red Wyoming view her unfavorably—while 62 percent of all voters in the state similarly view her unfavorably.

Only 10 percent of GOP voters, and 13 percent of all voters, say they would vote to reelect her, and she trails by more than 30 points—54 percent to 21 percent—against state Sen. Anthony Bouchard, who has announced a campaign against her since her impeachment vote.

The survey of 500 likely voters was conducted by Trump’s pollster John McLaughlin from Jan. 25 to Jan. 26, as revealed in a memo that McLaughlin wrote to Trump adviser Jason Miller.

“Liz Cheney’s decision to vote to impeach President Trump makes her extremely vulnerable,” McLaughlin wrote. “It is evident her ratings are in bad shape among general election voters and have collapsed among Republicans and Trump voters.”

Cheney has seen her fortunes crash not just in Wyoming—where at least one fellow U.S. House Republican, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), traveled to campaign against her—but in the U.S. House GOP conference as well.

As Breitbart News previously reported, more than half of the GOP conference have signed a petition saying they would vote on a secret ballot to oust her as chair. House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy, meanwhile, has said he supports her staying in the position but

You would think thin-skinned GWB would hate the Clintons for all the critical things they said about his father during the 1992 presidential campaign. Yet he is very friendly with them.

EVERY Wyoming conservative needs to stick with Bouchard.

How will the deep state deal with him?

The Linda Graham way is to promote a bunch of primary challengers to spread the vote so the incumbent can sneak through with a plurality.

The deep state way is to Judge Moore him.

When will the women come out, all teary eyed and kleenex clutching, confessing to their younger stupid selves being sexually abused/assaulted/led astray by Simon Bar Bouchard?

The Bushie Trump hate runs deep.

____________________________________________________

Bush & Cheney did not turn...?

They have always been corrupt and part of the Elite Global Order DC swamp...?

They turned on DJT out of fear of exposure for their ill-gotten gains...?

Lizzy is just an extension of the game...probably being groomed for the Presidency one day...

But Kevin McCarthy wants us to “knock it off” because “all this infighting is distracting from our usual kabuki theater of pretending to fight the Democrats”

McCarthy's as big a swamp dweller as she is. If he ever becomes Speaker it'll be Paul Ryan the Sequel.

Exactly...

I did put that qualifier in though, because Trump was new, but he knew what
He was doing.

It serves the left, and the uniparty, to “elect” RINOe,too?

“I hope Cheney gets booted, but is a vote in Wyoming pending?”

She needs to be harassed (verbally, not physically) relentlessly so that she’ll resign. She must resign NOW.
