The United States House of Representatives just voted to repeal and replace Obamacare. When Democrats voted to pass Obamacare, they subsequently faced a tough midterm election. So will Republicans face a similar reaction from their constituents in 2018?
Democrats seem to think so; in fact, on the House floor today, Democrats could be heard singing “‘Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye,” with the implications being that these Republicans just set themselves up to be voted out of office in 2018 by voting for the American Health Care Act.
So which Republicans are vulnerable in 2018? Well, as observed by Nate Silver, there are 27 Republicans who voted for the American Health Care Act and won their district by less than 15 percent of the vote last election.
According to Daily Kos, there are also 23 of Republicans from districts that Hillary Clinton won in 2016; this indicates that there exists a significant number of Democrats in the district who might turn out to vote the member of Congress out of office in 2018.
