Some Democrats are expected to defect on voting on articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, according to several reports this week.

As House Judiciary Committee members hold a hearing to hold a committee-wide vote on impeachment, some battleground Democrats in the House are mulling voting against impeachment as it would hurt their chances at reelection in 2020. The final vote on impeachment is expected to occur next week before the Christmas recess.
