Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) would lose her re-election bid, like South Carolina Rep. Tom Rice, who was ousted from Congress in his Republican primary on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSame thing\u2019s going to happen in Wyoming to Virginia\u2019 resident\u2019 Liz Cheney, that happened in South Carolina to Congressman\u2019 Impeach Master\u2019 Tom Rice, who lost as an incumbent by 28 points!\u201d Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.<\/p>\n<p>Rice, a five-term congressman, was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/fry-defeats-trump-targeted-rep-rice-in-south-carolina-congressional-race_4531299.html\">defeated<\/a> by Trump-endorsed Rep. Russell Fry in South Carolina\u2019s 7th Congressional District primary on June 14.<\/p>\n<p>Rice received 25.54 percent of the vote, while Fry had 51.07 percent, according to Decision Desk HQ.<\/p>\n<p>Cheney, like Rice, is among 10 House Republicans who joined the Democrat effort to impeach Trump for allegedly inciting the Jan. 6 incident at the U.S. Capitol, while the majority of Republicans voted against the impeachment, believing it was unconstitutional and unwarranted.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s camp has targeted Cheney for a primary challenge. The former president endorsed Cheyenne attorney Harriet Hageman, who is one of the four Republicans challenging the incumbent lawmaker.<\/p>\n<p>Multiple polls have shown that Cheney and Hageman are the top two candidates; one survey found Cheney 28 points behind her primary opponent Hageman.<\/p>\n<p>A recent <a href=\"https:\/\/s3.documentcloud.org\/documents\/22056168\/wyoming-poll.pdf\">poll<\/a> by Fabrizio, Lee &#038; Associates, which included 400 responses from likely GOP primary voters, asked, \u201cIf the Republican Primary for Congress were held today for which of the following candidates would you vote?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>About 56 percent of respondents say they would cast a ballot to elect Hageman, while 28 percent would choose Cheney, according to the survey conducted from June 1 to June 2.<\/p>\n<p>Seeking a fourth term, Cheney hauled in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fec.gov\/data\/committee\/C00607556\/?tab=raising#total-receipts\">$10 million<\/a> for her re-election campaign as of the end of March, according to the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Hageman only raised about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fec.gov\/data\/candidate\/H2WY00166\/?tab=raising#individual-contribution-transactions\">$2 million<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, most of the money raised by Cheney came from out-of-state donors. Cheney brought in $255,336 from Wyoming residents, placing the state in eighth place. In contrast, Hageman\u2019s campaign raised $543,094, according to FEC. The fundraising figures were first reported by Newsweek.<\/p>\n<p>Cheney has held Wyoming\u2019s only seat in the House of Representatives since 2017. But she has faced heavy backlash since voting to impeach Trump, including being <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/rnc-censures-cheney-kinzinger-for-their-role-on-jan-6-committee_4256994.html\">censured<\/a> by her state\u2019s Republican Party and later being <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/house-republicans-oust-rep-liz-cheney-as-gop-conference-chairwoman_3812672.html\">removed<\/a> as GOP House Conference Chair for her repeated criticism of Trump.<\/p>\n<p>The Epoch Times has reached out to Cheney\u2019s office for comment.<\/p>\n<p><em>Jeff Louderback and Ivan Pentchoukov contributed to the report.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Correction:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated the state Rep. Liz Cheney represents. She represents Wyoming.
