Rep. Liz Cheney’s (R-Wyo.) campaign is offering instructions on how Democrats can change their party affiliation to vote for her in Wyoming’s August primary.
One of the questions on the instructions sent to voters reads, “How do I change my party affiliation to register as a Republican so I can vote for Liz?”
The instructions explain voters can “complete the Wyoming Voter Registration Application & Change Form and submit it to your county clerk’s office no later than 14 days before the primary election.”
It continues, “You may also change your party affiliation at your polling place on the day of the primary or general election, or when requesting an absentee ballot.”
Check out the instructions below:
During a February interview with The New York Times, Cheney suggested she would not reach out to Democrats requesting that they change parties.
“That is not something that I have contemplated, that I have organized or that I will organize,” Cheney said.
She told the outlet she would “work hard for every single vote.”
Cheney’s spokesman, Jeremy Adler, explained she was “proud to represent all Wyomingites and is working hard to earn every vote.”
She defended the move in a statement provided to The Washington Post.
“I’ve been a conservative Republican since I first voted for Ronald Reagan in 1984,” Cheney said
