Supporters of Cheney, challenger split on legitimacy of Biden win: poll

An overwhelming majority of Rep. Liz Cheney’s (R-Wyo.) supporters said in a new poll that they believe President Biden legitimately won the 2020 election, while the opposite is true for those who support her challenger in the upcoming GOP primary, Harriet Hageman, who is backed by former President Trump

The University of Wyoming (UW) poll found that 94 percent of Cheney supporters view Biden’s victory as legitimate, compared to only 16 percent of Hageman supporters.

Hageman has supported Trump’s unfounded claims of election fraud, saying the 2020 election was “rigged” at a candidate forum earlier this month. Cheney, meanwhile, has repeatedly laid into Trump and his allies, even referring to the GOP as “very sick” in recent days.

The new poll also found that Cheney is facing an uphill battle in the Tuesday primary.
