ANDREW JOHNSON (D)
House vote:
Yea: 122 R / 4 D
Nay: 45 D / 2 R
Senate vote:
Yea: 35 R
Nay: 10 R / 9 D
Result: Not removed from office.
RICHARD NIXON (R)
Committee Vote:
Yea: 21 D / 7 R
Nay: 10 R
Result: Resigned before a House vote could take place.
Assuming Republicans would have broken 7-10 as they did in Committee during the Nixon impeachment, the results could have been as follows:
Yea: 241 D / 79 R
Nay: 113 R
Senate vote:
Yea: 56 D / 18 R
Nay: 26 R
In such a case, the vote would have been successful.
BILL CLINTON (D)
House vote:
Yea: 223 R / 5 D
Nay: 201 D / 5 R
Senate vote:
Yea: 50 R
Nay: 45 D / 5 R
DONALD TRUMP (R)
House vote:
Yea: 228 D
Nay: 192 R / 1 D
Senate vote:
Yea: 47 D / 1 R
Nay: 52 R
Summary:
Trump, along with the hypothetical successful Nixon, are the only ones to have their own party's Senators vote against them. Additionally, the two are the only ones not to have at least one senator from their opposition party back them.
