EAST LANSING, Mich. — Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney urged hundreds of mid-Michigan voters Tuesday to support her Democratic colleague, Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, describing her as a candidate who would "put country above party."
The stump speech in support of Slotkin at East Lansing High School's gym marked the Wyoming Republican's first time campaigning for a Democratic candidate.
"If we want to ensure this revival of our republic, we have to walk away from politics as usual," Cheney said to group of about 600. " ... If the people in our party are not doing the job they need to do, then we're going to vote for the people in the other party."
