Liz Cheney says she’s voting for Harris

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), a vocal critic of former President Trump, announced Wednesday she is voting for Vice President Harris.

Cheney, who sat on the House select committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, announced her decision during an appearance at Duke University, according to multiple attendees who posted on social media.

“Because we are here in North Carolina, I think it is crucially important for people to recognize, not only is what I’ve just said about the danger that Trump poses something that should prevent people from voting for him, but I don’t believe that we have the luxury of writing in candidates’ names, particularly in swing states,” Cheney said in a clip shared on the social media platform X.

Cheney added that “as a conservative, as someone who believes in and cares about the Constitution, I have thought deeply about this, and because of the danger that Donald Trump poses, not only am I not voting for Donald Trump … voting for Kamala Harris.”
