Jackson Hole Republicans were in the vast minority Saturday when they voted against censuring Rep. Liz Cheney, Wyomingâs lone voice in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Mary Martin, a member of the Teton County GOPâs executive committee, traveled to Rawlins for the vote. She intended to vote to censure. But a letter from Pinedale Town Councilor Isaac Best that in part said Cheney âis our representative, not our puppetâ helped change Martinâs mind. She voted against the measure.
âI donât agree with the evidence I saw. I donât agree with what her decision was. However, I wasnât there, and I didnât see what she saw,â Martin told the News&Guide. âShe voted her conscience. Itâs not my place to tell her whether her conscience is right or wrong.â

A white Iowa man, who rammed into a crowd of racial injusticeprotesters in August, is getting a chance to expunge his records. A judge made the decision in the case of 45-year-old Michael Ray Stepanek last month, deciding to keep him out of prison and to erase his record if he stays out of trouble, The Associated Press reported.
Granting the deferred judgment, which gives Stepanek a chance to be cleared from a felony charge after a three-year probation period, Judge Paul Miller also suspended the $1,025 civil fine. The ruling comes after Stepanek admitted to driving his Toyota Camry through the crowd in Iowa City, Iowa, because the protesters needed “an attitude adjustment.”
