Republican says the ‘broad coalition’ voting for Vice President Harris is ‘putting patriotism ahead of partisanship’.
Republican Liz Cheney has campaigned with Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris and urged voters in the United States to reject the “depraved cruelty” of her rival, former President Donald Trump.
“I’ve never voted for a Democrat, but this year I’m proudly casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris,” Cheney said on Thursday, at an event in the swing state of Wisconsin.
“Putting patriotism ahead of partisanship is not an aspiration. It is our duty.”
Her appearance with Harris took place in the small community of Ripon, where, in 1854, the Republican Party was established.
When Harris spoke afterwards, she thanked Cheney and said she stood in the “finest tradition” of the Republican Party’s leaders.
