How A US Congress Lady Got More Than She Bargained For On Twitter by UPDISTIC7: 5:32pm On Jan 07, 2017
As the US GOP lawmakers continue in their efforts to repeal Obama’s healthcare signature “Obamacare” One member took the game a little bit far by going online to seek the opinions of the citizens. She got what she didn’t bargained for from online viewers.
The Twitter poll by the fierce critics of the Obamacare Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., on whether the health-care law should be repealed backfired big-time on her last Wednesday as lots of people tweeted “No,” rather than “Yes.”

She had the poll posted last Tuesday, seeking the views of the people on the highly contested plan to repeal the health care act by the outgoing administration, and requesting that they retweet their support for killing Obamacare if they favored the repeal. She also asked in that tweet what people want to see as a replacement for the Affordable Care Act.

When the poll closed Wednesday, a shocking 84 percent of the nearly 8,000 votes said “No” on the question of repeal. White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz had retweeted the poll Tuesday to his Twitter followers.
