    Does anybody know if these are safe district Dems or purple district Dems? I do have some sympathy for politicians who use strategic votes that don’t actually matter.

      Of the 10 Democrats who voted to censure Al Green, 6 of them are in safe blue districts. They didn’t have to do this at all.
