Liz Cheney says 2 Arizona GOP candidates are a threat to democracy- Reported in Axios by Jessica Boehm.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) warned during an ASU (Arizona State University) event Wednesday that the outcome of Arizona's governor and secretary of state elections will impact the future of American democracy.

The "democracy dialogue" was hosted by the McCain Institute* for International Leadership.

Why it matters:

 Ms. Cheney is a vocal critic of #TFG Trump and has pledged to campaign against candidates who promote his lies about Democrats "stealing" (#fakenews!) the 2020, election, including Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake.

The big picture: Cheney's criticism of Trump has made her a household name, but it, unbelievably, her position proved unpopular with her Wyoming constituents. She, unfortunately, lost her August primary to the "Evil-Trump-backed" - the right wing hideous candidate Harriet Hageman.

Zoom in: Cheney called out Lake and secretary of state candidate Mark Finchem, saying she's never voted for a Democrat, but "absolutely would" if she lived in Arizona. Both Lake and Finchem will only honor the results of elections if they agree with them, Cheney said.

What she's saying: "If you care about our democracy and you care about the survival of our republic, then … we cannot give people power who have told us that they will not honor elections."
