Bailout Plan Rejected, But is it Dead?
Check out this The Wall Street Journal article
Considering elections are coming up, the pressure for incumbent representatives to vote NO was extremely high. I'm sure my own Democratic Congressman had many many threats from conservatives--threats stating he better oppose the bill or else they'd vote him out in November.
HOUSE ROLL CALL
9/29/2008, 3:51 p.m. EDT
(AP) — The 228-205 roll call Monday of the vote by which the House rejected a $700 billion emergency bailout for the nation's financial system.
A "yes" vote is a vote in favor of the bailout package.
Voting yes were 140 Democrats and 65 Republicans.
Voting no were 95 Democrats and 133 Republicans.
X denotes those not voting.
There is 1 vacancy in the 435-member House.
