OK, but keep in mind Blake Moore changed his vote at the last minute only as a procedural move to be able to bring the motion up for vote at a future date. There were truly only 3 defectors. And Steve Scalise was away for cancer treatment. Had Scalise been there, and voted for impeachment, the motion would have passed with a 216 to 215 majority.
