2018 election
Horn was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives during the 2018 midterm elections, defeating Republican representative Steve Russell by just over 1% of the vote.[2]
Tenure
Rep. Horn concurred with the House Democrat majority in supporting and voting in favor of the impeachment coup against Donald Trump.[3] Having been previously warned by constituents over the matter,[4] Horn currently faces an uphill re-election fight in 2020 after her partisan decision, as Oklahoma is overall a very conservative state with the Republican Party holding every other congressional seat along with both Senate seats.
Ratings
Horn is a liberal who has a 100% rating from the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, 62% rating from the ACLU, a 100% rating from the NEA, and a 93% rating from the League of Conservation Voters.[5] She is also currently endorsed by the extremely pro-abortion EMILY's List.[6]
