Whipped: Preliminary House Vote Count on H.R. 3962: See Who's For/Who's Against


SEIU (Service Employees International Union) conducted a preliminary vote count on health care reform this week. Here are the results. There may still be time to contact your Congressional Representative before the formal vote takes place later today, Saturday, Nov. 7, 2009:

SEIU email sent Friday, Nov. 6, 2009:

Before a vote takes place, most Members of Congress are asked ahead of time which way they'll vote. It's called tallying the "whip count." It helps us figure out who needs to hear from us, and who's already made up their mind. There are 435 members of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Vote Count: U.S. House of Representatives on The Affordable Health Care for America Act, otherwise known as H.R. 3962
