And Hurd wasn't even on the "Unsure" or "Lean Yes" lists as far as I can tell.

Fuller added him to "Lean Yes" 45 minutes ago from not on the map.

If there are no other surprises, this will pass 217-213. If there are surprises...

No, it would be 216 to 214 with 21 defections.

238 republicans - 1 not voting - 21 defections = 216 votes YES
193 dems + 21 Rs = 214 votes NO

So Hurd is a no. Means Issa or Knight has to walk the plank or Curbelo.

exemption of congress from HC bill it says on c-span.

Hmm, I wonder why they would want to exempt themselves from this "wonderful" bill.

Of anything, this should ensure an active electorate in 2018. Will be unlike the past few midterms.

If victorious, Republicans will be having a big press conference at the beautiful Rose Garden of the White House immediately after vote!

@ronnie...according to their excuses, cause DC isn't a state.

Yeah I deleted that, and just realized that means either the GOP whip is wrong, or someone on the Lean No or No list is voting Yes.

CSPAN is misleading. This is the bill:

I don't think I've ever seen a proposal that sums up the Republican ideals better than "Insurers should charge women extra if they get raped."

Quote from: modern maverick on May 03, 2017, 11:11:16 PM
They had seven years to come up with a coherent ~conservative health care solution~. SEVEN ING YEARS OF CONSTANTLY RUNNING ON OPPOSING THE ACA. Is this turkey all they're capable of?! Is it all they want to be capable of?! Why the hell didn't they prepare a halfway acceptable bill two, or five, or seven years ago that they could pass when they got a Republican trifecta?! Why didn't they spend any of that seven years coming up with something that wouldn't cause people to die in a heap if passed?

It's not that complicated.  They didn't come up with anything better than this "turkey" because there is no "good" bill that can pass on Republican votes alone.  The Republicans disagree among themselves about what kind of role the government should have in the health insurance industry, and the policy preferences of many of them are too politically unpalatable to put forward.  Yet they need to almost unanimously agree on whatever passes, because their majorities are narrow.
