Rep. Liz Cheney, defeated in Wyoming Republican primary, says "now the real work begins"

CBS News projects Rep. Liz Cheney, one of former President Donald Trump's fiercest critics, has lost the Wyoming Republican primary to Harriet Hageman, who was backed by Trump. 

In a concession speech Tuesday night, Cheney said she believed she could have won the primary but it required her to "go along with President Trump's lie about the 2020 election... That was a path I could not and would not take." 

"No House seat, no office in this land is more important than the principles that we are all sworn to protect. And I well understood the potential political consequences of abiding by my duty," Cheney said, before adding that she called Hageman to concede.
