Both have also claimed without evidence that the midterm elections next month might be tainted by fraud.
Later during the event, which was put on by the McCain Institute, a think tank named for the late Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., Cheney noted that"for almost 40 years now, I've been voting Republican." "We cannot be in a position where we elect people who will not fundamentally uphold the sanctity of elections," Cheney said Wednesday.
