Liz Cheney hits the trail for Harris in the birthplace of the Republican Party
Liz Cheney will join Vice President Kamala Harris Thursday at a campaign event in Ripon, Wisconsin, a city commonly recognized as the birthplace of the Republican Party.
Liz Cheney, a former Republican congresswoman and daughter of a former Republican vice president, will join Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday at a campaign event in Ripon, Wisconsin, the city commonly recognized as the birthplace of the Republican Party.
Cheney will campaign for Harris for the first time amid a larger effort by the Democratic ticket to capture the support of Republicans disillusioned with former President Donald Trump.
Cheney, who voted to impeach Trump after the Jan. 6 insurrection and led the committee that would ultimately refer Trump to the Justice Department for criminal prosecution, endorsed Harris last month in North Carolina.
“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, but I will be voting for Kamala Harris,” Cheney said at Duke University in Durham at the time.
Days later, Cheney’s father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, said he planned to vote for Harris, as well.
