Liz Cheney Receives More Donations from California than Any Other State (two weeks!)

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) has received more donations from Democrat-controlled California than any other state, including Wyoming, Federal Election Commission (FEC) data revealed about Cheney’s fundraising for the Republican primary, which will be held on August 16.

“More than 1,100 Californians contributed nearly a tenth of the $13 million Cheney raised through June 30 for her reelection campaign,” the Los Angeles Times reported. “In that period, she received donations from just over 200 Wyoming residents, totaling more than $260,000.”

The data represents donations from individuals under the Federal Election Commission’s $200 threshold. The data excludes donations from PACs for fundraising committees.

Cheney’s California fundraising has spiked in the 2022 campaign cycle, where she finds herself down by about 30 points to Donald Trump-endorsed local attorney Harriet Hageman. In 2020, Cheney raised $161,608 from Californians. In 2018, she raised $5,900. In 2016, Cheney’s first campaign, she raised $100,875 from the state, the Times reported.

In contrast, Hageman has done very well with Wyoming voters, who have donated more than $1.2 million — more than four times as much as Wyoming voters have donated to Cheney, FEC data shows.

Cheney’s California donors include Hollywood elites, such as studio mogul Jeffrey Katzenberg, producer Kevin Bright, and director Gary Ross.

“We disagree on most everything,” Katzenberg told the Times before adding that Cheney “has been heroic and selfless in her performance and her loyalty to America and our Constitution. I stand in awe of her.”

Two weeks from tomorrow is the Wyoming primary.

And Liz Cheney will then be a lame duck, with legislative power running out like sands through the hourglass.

Bet the public finding out about that does just wonders for her standing with Wyoming voters, eh?

I think the Marxist progressives consider Liz Cheney expendable. They are not going to save her. I could be wrong.

Good for the economy.

Fall 2016/Reno, Nv./5 people came knocking on my apartment door looking for a previous tenant. Hillary supporters. They had to come from Calif. as Ca. was in the bag for them. They had the money to send them there.

This apartment complex had a high turnover rate. Filled garbage cans next to the mailboxes. I’m sure many of those folks in the can voted somehow. If they weren’t there a google search could find if they were registered anywhere. If they weren’t anyone could step in for him or her. Farfetched? Think again.

Yep just what I thought......I wonder how much of that money is from that top gun maverick movie 1.2 billion.

Liz Cheney has served her masters well. The important thing for Liz is what kind of a golden parachute will be provided. I assume every military industrial door on K Street will be wide open for her. Correct me if I’m wrong, but can’t she take whatever is left in her campaign slush fund home as a lovely parting gift?

Thankfully Californians can not vote in Wyoming.
Oh wait a minute, does Wyoming have mail in voting?

“Correct me if I’m wrong, but can’t she take whatever is left in her campaign slush fund home as a lovely parting gift?”

They write these laws for themselves. I’m sure there’s some way to turn the funds into a nice nest egg.

Also, since they’re campaign donations, I think they can be transferred to other candidates. So she can fund other RINOs down the line.
