What I've found, but no vote record online that I can tell:

265. H.RES.265 : A resolution in the matter of Representative Gerry E. Studds.
Sponsor: Rep Stokes, Louis [OH-21] (introduced 7/14/1983) Cosponsors (None)
Committees: House Standards of Official Conduct
Latest Major Action: 7/20/1983 Passed/agreed to in House. Status: Resolution Agreed to in House (Amended) by Yea-Nay Vote: 420 - 3 (Record Vote No: 260).

In all there were four votes. The House voted to order the ethics committee to toughen the penalty recommended for Crane from reprimand to censure, 289-136. Then came a final vote on the strengthened motion for censure, 421-3, in which Crane voted against himself.

The vote to upgrade Studd's punishment was 338-87 and the final censure tally was 420-3 Both times he voted present, neither yes or no.

Mitchell and Reps. William Clay, D-Mo., and Mervyn M. Dymally, D-Calif., voted against censuring Crane and Studds. Calls to the offices of Clay and Dymally were not returned. Rep. Parren J. Mitchell, D-Md.

Hey, maybe I'm dumb, but you are saying, aren't you, that the future D leaders voted FOR censure for Studds? That is, GOPFlack's claim is false?
