OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Democrat Kendra Horn surprised even her own supporters in 2018 when the first-time candidate eked out a victory in an Oklahoma City congressional district that had been in Republican hands for nearly four decades and had voted heavily for Donald Trump in 2016. But now the impeachment drive against the president has put her and others like her in a tight spot.
She opposes an impeachment inquiry at this time, Horn spokeswoman Chacey Schoeppel said Thursday, but she will listen to the facts and "go through them methodically." As of Friday morning, an Associated Press survey of most of the House Democrats showed six as either not supporting or undecided on the inquiry that was announced this week by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The six represent an extraordinarily small share of the 235 Democrats in the House. And Pelosi doesn't need them to move ahead with an investigation.
But they illustrate the insecurities of those Democrats who managed to get elected from Trump country.
All the holdouts hail from districts that Trump won handily in 2016 and that the Republicans are targeting as they try to win back the House in 2020. Most of the six weighed in after the explosive whistleblower complaint against the president became public Thursday.

Trump has the millions if not billions of dollars to take down every Moderate & Blue Dog Democrat (House) in the entire Democrat Party in 2020. Democrats have screwed themselves by trying to be cute.
The American people/voters are overwhelmingly standing with and supporting our great POTUS, Trump. The Trump team has collected over $15,000,000 dollars in donations over the last three days, and is fully expect to raise between 20-$25,000,000 over this weekend.
THAT is sufficient for real American voters to vote 'em out.
They better be cause that boomerang is out there and ready to strike.
I would think they would put forth bills to ban pitchforks and ropes in their districts.
She’s toast and she knows it. No fat house pension for her.
The Democrat Party doesn’t care if its attacks on President Trump, his supporters, the electoral process, and the Constitution spark civil war in America. Its objective is the destruction of the USA.
Yup. The Bartender Speaker of the House threw her under the bus.
Here on Staten Island we are just waiting for our rat to signal he is on board with AOC. That will be the end of his one term.
If they impeach Trump it will be open season on dim pols and bureaucrats.
If this be impeachment, make the most of it. Do want you want Mr. President they cannot impeach you twice.
My question is why did the voters elect her in the first place? Is it because her republican opponent was not any good.
Just wondering.
