Multiple states surpass Wyoming for donations to Cheney campaign

An unprecedented amount of out-of-state money is pouring into Rep. Liz Cheney's reelection effort, as she campaigns in one of the nation's highest-profile congressional races.

The third quarter was the second-biggest fundraising period ever for Cheney, who is facing a tough reelection fight after her vote to impeach former President Donald Trump. She raised just over $1.7 million during that period, which runs from July to September.

These hefty donations came on the heels of Cheney’s all-time fundraising record, $1.9 million, which occurred one cycle earlier.

So far, only 6% of Cheney's itemized individual donations have come from donors who listed Wyoming addresses, compared to almost 27% in her 2019-2020 race, according to Federal Election Commission filings.

So EVERYBODY ELSE wants Liz Cheney to represent Wyoming.

The people of Wyoming, not so much.

We'll see who will prevail.

Like everything else they do, “campaign finance reform” was just another scam.

Out of state donations should be illegal. It circumvents the citizens of that particular state.

True, but they would just find a way to launder it. It might be best to just let everyone know who is donating what.

Only her fellow communists can still stand Liz now. She needs to just switch parties, or we could get bold and kick her out as the GOP has done to others in the past. Then she can go join her fellow Democrats and their demonic Attorney General in calling parents concerned over their kids education ‘domestic terrorists’. I viewed a video on them refusing to allow a video to be seen during Garland’s testimony, and you can check it out at Whatfinger News in crawler link top of page. As always the opposite is true and the domestic terrorists are democRATs, Garland himself and their BLMantifa paramilitary wing. Since no charges are going to be filed against Alec Baldwin and Liz Cheney’s dad have both now shot someone and gotten away with it.

States should simply pass a Law that only funds from within their own state can be used to fund state candidates.

Congressmen are about on par politically with a Senator in small states.

Doesn’t matter. They can pump all the money they want into her campaign. She can be on every television and phone and it won’t matter.

The folks who LIVE in Wyoming have made up their minds.

Same goes with Trump. He doesn’t have to spend a darned dime on a campaign. Folks already know they will vote for him. Let the other guy spend like crazy. It’s what he did to Hillary.
