Liz Cheney\u2019s (R-WY) role on the January 6 committee is sparking heavy resentment from voters in her home state far from Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n<p>At the Frontier Days rodeo in Cheyenne, Wyoming, CNN interviewed the congresswoman\u2019s constituents about their thoughts on Cheney\u2019s recent conduct. Cheney, the vice chair of the House select committee investigating the January 6 riot, has gained quite a few enemies in the GOP through her repeated criticism of former President Donald Trump and her vote to impeach him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you planning to vote for Liz Cheney?\u201d CNN\u2019s Randi Kaye asked Wyoming voter Sharon Tuggle, who responded, \u201cHell no.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s done us dirty,\u201d Tuggle said, confirming to Kaye that Cheney lost her vote because of her part on the January 6th committee. \u201cLook at how she\u2019s done Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">CNN: &#8220;Here in Cheyenne, more than 1600 miles from Washington, almost everyone we spoke with told us they believe Liz Cheney is too focused on Donald Trump and the January 6th committee and not paying enough attention to what they believe matters to the people here in Wyoming.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fpV63S8Mln\">pic.twitter.com\/fpV63S8Mln<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mary Margaret Olohan (@MaryMargOlohan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MaryMargOlohan\/status\/1554080488142274561?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 1, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/MaryMargOlohan\/status\/1554080488142274561?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cShe is supposed to be supporting him,\u201d added Tuggle. \u201cShe is a Republican, for crying out loud.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPersonally, I think she\u2019s had three too many,\u201d another voter told Kaye, asked if Cheney should run for another term.<\/p>\n<p>Another voter interviewed by CNN shared that she finds Cheney\u2019s work on the \u201cJanuary 6th committee just repulsive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s all a hoax.

That\u2019s not the Wyoming way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another voter described Cheney as \u201can embarrassment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Voters also said Cheney is out of touch with the people of Wyoming, overly focused on the committee and dealing with Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe doesn\u2019t know what her constituents want here anymore because she\u2019s lost touch with the values of the people,\u201d one male voter said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t feel like she supports her people here in Wyoming anymore,\u201d another woman added. \u201cThe things that she\u2019s voting for don\u2019t really reflect what the people here in Wyoming feel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Polling conducted by the\u00a0<a class=\"multivariate\" href=\"https:\/\/trib.com\/news\/state-and-regional\/govt-and-politics\/the-poll-results-are-in-hageman-holds-commanding-lead-over-cheney\/article_1f33dfe0-02f1-11ed-8202-7befc0111031.html#tracking-source=home-top-story\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Mason-Dixon Polling &#038; Strategy for the\u00a0<em>Casper Star-Tribune<\/em><\/a>\u00a0in July found Cheney trailing in the double digits behind her Republican challenger, Harriet Hageman, who Trump has endorsed.<\/p>\n<p>The congresswoman\u2019s office directed The Daily Wire to statements Cheney made at the end of the Wyoming Primary Debate in June.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Wyoming, we ride for the brand, and our brand is the United States Constitution,\u201d she said. \u201cSo, I\u2019m going to ask people for their vote. I\u2019m going to work hard to earn that vote.\u00a0But people need to know something about me. I will never put party above my duty to the country. I will never put party above my duty to the Constitution. I swore an oath under God and I will abide by that oath.
