Disgusting (Rs) -- nm - hellSpawn Oct 31, 08:50 4
- Republicans, who have been harping about unfair process and procedures, just unanimously voted against additional open process and procedures -- nm - decline Oct 31, 08:58 3
  - Also, I like (from my quick reading) that apparently they gave Trump plenty of rights to have his lawyers question witnesses, call witnesses, etc., - pmb Oct 31, 09:00 1
    - I imagine this is what Rs will twist to use for why they did not vote for it. -- nm - hellSpawn Oct 31, 09:09
  - Their feelings are hurt because they didn't have them before. - pmb Oct 31, 08:59
Democratic Rep. Collin Peterson from Minnesota and Rep. Jeff Van Drew from New Jersey voted against moving forward. -- nm - decline Oct 31, 08:41 8
- The district that went most for trump but is represented by a Democrat is Peterson’s I believe. -- nm - Tim Oct 31, 08:44 1
  - it's basically all of Western Minnesota so yeah, probably job preservation -- nm - ty97 Oct 31, 08:45
- They go on the list. -- nm - Mop Oct 31, 08:43
- May they be primaried out of a job -- nm - TWuG Oct 31, 08:43
- I presume red-leaning districts that they captured in 2018 -- nm - ty97 Oct 31, 08:42 3
  - or not. Peterson's been in Congress since 1991. -- nm - ty97 Oct 31, 08:43 2
    - R+12, but he’s popular there. -- nm - Tim Oct 31, 08:45
    - Van Drew voting no arguably makes sense -- (link) - ty97 Oct 31, 08:44
