Liz Cheney urges New Hampshire primary voters to take a stand against GOP 'cowardice'
On a mission to keep former President Donald Trump from returning to the White House, Former U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney is urging New Hampshire voters to use their upcoming presidential primary to send a message to the world
HANOVER, N.H. (AP) — On a mission to keep former President Donald Trump from returning to the White House, Former U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney implored New Hampshire voters Friday to use their upcoming presidential primary to send a message to the world.
“Speak for us all. Tell the world who we are with your vote. Tell them that we are a good and a great nation,” she said at Dartmouth College a little over two weeks before the Jan. 23 primary. “But make sure they know that we do not bend, we do not break and we do not yield in the defense of our freedom. Show the world that we will defeat the plague of cowardice sweeping through the Republican party.”
Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, had been a leading Republican voice for years. But she parted with many of her colleagues over Trump’s false claims of voting fraud and her position as vice chair of the Congressional committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
