Discussion on Fox TV of all places about some 17 odd democratic reps elected from districts that Trump carried in 2016. The tone of the anchor person implied that any true blue democrat ought to vote with the party, to impeach Trump. Heaven forbid that they ignore the Congressional party and vote for what their district wants. This from a Fox anchor person. In case you are not following the great impeachment show closely, 17 House votes is probably enough to defeat impeachment in the House.
Speaking as an elected NH senator, I under stand my job to be voting for what my constituents want. And if I don't vote my district, I expect my voters will vote me out of office, with the election just a year away. Fortunately, in most cases, my own views match the views of my constituents. That must have something to do with my getting elected in the first place.
Anyhow, the great impeachment show will probably run thru Christmas and into next year.
