Making Daddy Proud: 98% of Democrats Back Liz Cheney, Only 15% of Republicans

A new poll out Wednesday shows Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., down by nearly 30 points just six days before the state’s Tuesday primary.

The Wyoming Primary Election Survey conducted by the University of Wyoming shows a whopping 98 percent of Democrats supporting Cheney and only 2 percent supporting her Trump-endorsed opponent, attorney Harriet Hageman. A measly 15 percent of overall Republicans reported support for incumbent lawmaker Cheney.

Meanwhile, Hageman leads among likely GOP primary voters 57 to 28 percent. No other candidate landed with more than 2 percent support while nearly 10 percent of likely Republican primary voters remained unsure.

On the day Hageman launched her bid to unseat the three-term incumbent with an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, Cheney embraced the challenge.

“Here’s a sound bite for you,” Cheney wrote on Twitter. “Bring it.”
