- Right now, members of the U.S. House of Representatives are deciding how they'll vote during tomorrow's impeachment proceedings. No Republicans are expected to vote for impeachment and they are trying to lobby undecided Democrats to do the same. If this vote goes along party lines, President Donald Trump will be impeached, as Democrats have a majority in the House. Democratic Congresswoman Debbie Dingell of Michigan’s 12th district hasn’t announced her decision yet. While speaking to Stateside, the congresswoman was coy, saying that the President will be "very angry" at how she plans to vote. A few hours after our interview, Dingell officially announced that she will vote for impeaching the president.
