I don't know how many West Virginia voters will still be remembering this vote by then. Assuming that the ACA remains largely or entirely in place, no one will have suffered any ill effects from her vote.

Heller, however, is considered the most vulnerable incumbent Republican Senator who's up in 2018. Even before the health care debacle, he was the only Republican Senator defending a seat in a state Clinton won.
