For a long time I have considered a dilemma which possibly troubles some politicians from time to time . . . “Should a politician be responsive to his/her voters?”
The issue involves whether or not a representative of the people should follow the will of the people who elected him/her or whether that representative should follow his/her own leanings on an issue if his/her opinion is different from those who voted for him/her.
(Whew! That last sentence sounds like something that would come out of a politician’s mouth . . . no, I am not running for anything.)
In some situations I think that one can argue both sides of this question. For example, if the voters in a certain state are split 52-48 on an issue, I think that the representative could reasonably go either way. He/she often doesn’t usually have the time, the proclivity, or the predisposition to take a poll to see what the populace in his/her state favors. In this type of situation I think that the representative should make a decision, after all “you can’t please all of the people all of the time.”
However, what if those who voted for him/her feel strongly about an issue (e.g. 80-20 against). In this circumstance it seems to me that the elected representative of the people should follow the will of those who elected him/her.
Last week Rep. Liz Cheney had to make a decision when she had to vote to again impeach President Trump. Did she ask herself, “what would the people of Wyoming want me to do? Is it close (52-48) in my district, or is there an overwhelming preponderance one way or the other?”
Did she have a vendetta against Donald Trump?
Did she vote the way her constituents felt on this issue?
Apparently she not not consider what her constituency would want her to do when she voted for impeachment.
The Wyoming Republican Party blasted her decision, saying it has prompted a torrent of angry calls and emails from those who “vehemently disagree with Representative Cheney’s decision and actions,” a statement said.
Following the outcry, the Republican Party Central Committee in Carbon County, Wyoming, unanimously voted to censure Cheney, according to The Washington Times. The Committee also demanded her presence before them to explain herself.
“Our representative did not represent our voice,” said Carbon County GOP Chairman Joey Correnti IV.
According to the Times, he said she’s been completely nonresponsive so far.
The obvious solution to this kind of issue should be left to the voters.
To me it appears that she has ridden the coattails of her father, Dick Cheney, long enough.
“Vote the bum-etta out.”
