Democratic Nays
My colleagues and I spent a lot of time on Friday trying to figure out where all the Democrats are on health care reform. As of Friday night, there are 23 confirmed "no" votes according to our count, with dozens more on the fence.
Here is a list that I hammered out with my colleague Lisa Desjardins of CNN Radio. By working together, we doubled the size of our research staff (you do the math.)
Adler (NJ)
Baird (WA)
Boren (OK)
Bright (AL)
Childers (MS)
Davis (AL)
Davis (TN)
Gordon (TN)
Herseth-Sandlin (SD)
Kissell (NC)
Kosmas (FL)
Kratovil (MD)
Marshall (GA)
Massa (NY)
Matheson (UT)
McMahon (NY)
Minnick (ID)
Peterson (MN)
Skelton (MO)
Tanner (TN)
Taylor (MS)
Teague (NM)
Opponents of the health reform bill would need 41 Democrats to buck their leadership and vote against the bill.
At this point, they certainly are in striking range of doing that. I will update this further as needed on Saturday and Sunday.
