Newsweek, October 2024
Former Representative Liz Cheney has predicted that millions of Republicans will quietly vote for Vice President Kamala Harris against former President Donald Trump. Polls continue to show a tight race between Harris and Trump in the final stretch of the campaign, with each candidate shifting gears to mobilize their voter bases as Election Day inches closer.
Harris spent the last few weeks on the campaign trail targeting independent and Republican voters who may have previously supported Trump but no longer feel comfortable doing so over issues including abortion and his unproven election fraud claims after the 2020 race. Cheney, a Republican who represented Wyoming in Congress but has endorsed Harris after breaking with Trump over the January 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol building, made her prediction while campaigning with the Democratic nominee in Michigan Monday.
