Former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney, who served as Vice-Chair of the House January 6 Committee, announced that she will vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential election. Speaking at Duke University, Cheney emphasized the existential danger she believes Donald Trump poses to the country. She stated, '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 also mentioned the importance of not writing in candidates' names, particularly in swing states. This endorsement marks a significant departure for Cheney, who has been a staunch critic of Trump and a prominent figure in the Republican Party.
