Liz Cheney censured in Wyoming for vote to impeach Trump: 'Did not represent our voice'
Washington Times, Jan 18, 2021

The Republican Party Central Committee in Carbon County, Wyoming, has censured Rep. Liz Cheney for voting to impeach President Trump, as support for the one-time rising GOP star crumbles in her home state.

The censure resolution passed in a unanimous vote by the 45-member central committee. It included a demand that Ms. Cheney appear before the committee to explain her actions.

“Our representative did not represent our voice,” said Carbon County GOP Chairman Joey Correnti IV, who presented the resolution to the central committee at a Saturday meeting where the vote took place.

The resolution condemns Ms. Cheney for conduct described as defying the will of most Wyoming Republican voters and joining in a rushed impeachment that did not examine all the facts and denied Mr. Trump due process.

[...]

Ms. Cheney had not responded to the county central committee as of Monday morning, Mr. Correnti said.

She has practically gone into hiding, he said.

“People in the county party have attempted to get ahold of Representative Cheney through email, phone calls — and I think only one person got a response from a staffer and it was pretty short,” he said. “We haven’t heard anything.”

They can't recall her.

But what the Republican party of Wyoming COULD do is withdraw all support for her, come 2022. And throw whatever weight they have behind a primary challenger.

Think they'll do that...?

(I wouldn't be on it.)

HOUSE.

"The censure resolution passed in a *unanimous* vote by the 45-member central committee. It included a demand that Ms. Cheney appear before the committee to explain her actions."

Rep. Liz Cheney is *CENSURED* 45-0 by a county committee in her home state of Wyoming.

Too bad they can't recall her @Fishrrman   --- She could recover for 2022, but not if Trump actively campaigns for her primary challenger.
