Liz Cheney teamed up with Vice President Kamala Harris Monday in a last-minute attempt to appeal to moderate Republicans who the former congressman believes may be worried about voting for Donald Trump but are afraid to say so publicly.
Harris and Cheney visited three counties: Chester County in Pennsylvania, Oakland County in Michigan, and Waukesha County in Wisconsin. Each was won by Nikki Haley, the former South Carolina governor and US ambassador to United Nations who ran against Trump for the Republican nomination.
During a town hall in Michigan framed Cheney November election as a choice between “right and wrong”.
“I certainly have a lot of Republicans who will tell me, I can’t be public. They worry about a whole range of things, including violence. But they will do the right thing,” Cheney said.
The daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney predicted at the time that “millions” of moderate Republicans too afraid to publicly oppose Trump will vote for Harris.
“And I just want to remind people, if you’re at all concerned, you can vote your conscience and never have to say a word to anybody. And there will be millions of Republicans who will do that on November 5th, vote for Vice President Harris,” Cheney said and elicited applause from the audience.

She lost her congressional seat in a primary battle two years ago.
