8 other lawmakers in competitive districts are currently on the fence ahead of the full House vote, according to an NBCNews tally.
The other was Rep. Collin Peterson of Minnesota, who represents a rural district Trump won by 30 points in 2016. A spokesperson for Peterson told NBC News on Friday that he's undecided on how he'll vote on the articles on the House floor, likely on Wednesday.
While Van Drew is the only definitive no, representatives of seven other Democrats from swing areas said they're still undecided., a freshman New York Democrat representing conservative Staten Island, said in a statement Friday that he would vote yes on both articles. "Party and politics will never come before the country I bled to protect—and would unquestionably do so again," the Army veteran said."A President coercing a foreign government into targeting American citizens is not just another example of scorched earth politics, it serves as an invitation to the enemies of the United States to come after any citizen, so long as they disagree with the President.
