Texas said no.

I'm dumbfounded. Harry Teague is my rep here in NM and he had the guts to vote no. Harry's voting record up to this point has been less than sterling and he has been catching a lot of flack from this very conservative area of his district. Maybe he's seeing the handwriting on the wall for 2010. The two liberals from the north part of the state voted just like I expected.

So did Alabama, even our lone black congressman who was elected unopposed but who has been warned by his constiuents in no uncertain terms they did not want this bill passed.

I was hoping it was true that Texas reps uniformly voted no, but that's not the case.

Alaska Said No. We only got one rep to check, Don Young said no.

Regardless of what the House passed on Saturday night, the Senate isn't going to pass a health care reform bill. Not enough votes to do so.

I hope ya'll are right on that one. I know it is being considered a new ball game now that it is in the senate; however, when the deal making begins you just never know how this thing is going to go.

The communist (Mike Honda) that represents my district voted yes.

Dee · « **Reply #13 on:** November 09, 2009, 09:43:45 AM »

Well, if we're gonna narrow it down to districts, I'm in luck. Ralph Hall voted NOPE!

Mine voted no but she also voted against the concealed carry bill and 50/50 just don't cut it.

Good to see that Mississippi said no, except for Thompson who votes the way his bosses tell him to.
