Minnick 1 Of 7 D No’s Vs. Porkulus Bill

Democrats Peter DeFazio of Oregon and Walt Minnick of Idaho voted no Friday as the House passed President Barack Obama's $787 billion plan to resuscitate the economy. They were among just seven Democrats who voted against the plan. Minnick opposed the stimulus measure last month, but DeFazio switched his vote. He was the only House member to oppose the bill after supporting the initial version/AP. Story here.

Question: Did Demo Minnick, as your congressman, vote the way you wanted him to do so?
