2. Not all of them.
I think there were some 12 that were going to vote no, and the filing deadline hasn't passed. Moveon is targeting them if they do vote no.

6. They are all up for re-election this year.
House terms are only two years.

7. I know, but I was wondering if any of them have challengers in the Democratic primary.

8. We need to get them out of office and get stronger progressives in there.

9. Do you have any idea
on why they voted "no?" Because voting for the HCR bill would not get them re-elected, so now they can tell their constituents they voted "no" for them and hopefully get their vote.
People in their districts are not pissed because they did not get a single payer mandate or public option mandate, they are pissed because they got a any form of govt mandate.
