The latest poll is in for Wyoming’s GOP Primary!
And it looks BAD for Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY).
Cheney trails Trump-endorsed challenger Harriet Hageman by 22% in a poll released Friday, spelling trouble for the swamp creature in next month’s primary.
“More than half, 52%, of likely primary voters in Wyoming said they would support Hageman, while just 30% expressed support for Cheney, according to the survey conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy on behalf of the Casper, Wyoming, Star Tribune,” Fox News reports.
The poll, that included 1,100 likely voters, showed single-digit support for other Wyoming Republican primary candidates.
11% of voters were undecided.

Fox News reported:
Former President Donald Trump selected Hageman out of several Republicans vying to unseat Cheney, who voted to impeach Trump and is one of two Republicans on the House committee investigating his alleged role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
The Wyoming poll found that the majority of voters disagreed with Cheney’s decision to serve on the Jan. 6 Committee (63%), and thought her opposition to Trump hurt her ability to represent Wyoming (61%). And 54% said Cheney’s service on the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attacks made them less likely to vote for her.
Cheney has tried to convince Democrats in Wyoming to vote for her in the Republican primary to gain support, a move that Hageman’s campaign characterized as a “desperate” move to “hold on to power.”
In a recent Wyoming GOP Primary debate, the public and media were barred due to “safety concerns.”
Public and Media Banned From Upcoming Wyoming Congressional Debate Including Liz Cheney
Cheney is so unpopular amongst Wyoming Republicans that she can't even debate her opponents in front of the people.
