Hi, Arbor8! Why do you think pay-to-play is not notable? That section seems properly sourced and the issue seems very important. Lesbianadvocate ( talk) 22:49, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
According to Wall Street Journal, her birth place is Mantador, North Dakota; but congress.org says it is Breckenridge, Minnesota. According to wikipedia, her brother's birth place is also Breckenridge, Minnesota; which is just 19 miles away from Mantador, North Dakota. 19 miles is not a very long distance, so she might have born in a Mantador hospital while her family house was in Breckenridge, but I can't find any source on that, neither any statement by her -or a resume- which indicates her place of birth. I reverted my edits after I saw the WSJ article, so her place of birth shows as Mantador, North Dakota once again with the WSJ reference, but I still think we need more sources on this before. Nimuaq ( talk) 12:52, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
CFredkin, these are not "quibbles" with the sources you are providing. They are not relevant.
First source: Mentions Heitkamp in passing as the type of Democrat Ted Cruz would need to convince to support his plan. Hypothetical anyway, it didn't come to pass.
Second source: An attack piece by a conservative commentator that doesn't mention how Heitkamp voted, it just blames her for the shutdown.
Third source: Says that she, Hoeven and Cramer voted on party lines, which is not notable. Are you going to insert the same quote about the amendment into the article of every member of the House and Senate? Of course not, because it's not notable. The quote about the shutdown as a whole IS useful, however, as it provides an overview to the whole situation, rather than adding in how she voted on every single amendment. Tiller54 ( talk) 17:31, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
Any objections to including the following statement regarding her support for ACA:
Critics have also pointed out that she was a vocal supporter of the legislation in 2010 and claim she expressed no concerns about it until declaring her candidacy for the Senate. [1] CFredkin ( talk) 16:30, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
I would propose modifying both statements as follows:
Berg and the NRSC argued that Heitkamp has altered her position on the health care law and was a vocal supporter of it in 2010, citing footage of her at a 2010 rally where she called the bill "a legacy vote." [2] [3] David Catanese of Polito claimed that she expressed no concerns about it until declaring her candidacy for the Senate. [4]
CFredkin ( talk) 17:41, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
- Maximusveritas ( talk) 13:28, 22 October 2013 (UTC)Berg and the NRSC criticized Heitkamp for offering unqualified support for the health care law until she ran for the Senate in 2011, citing footage of her at a 2010 rally where she called the bill "a legacy vote" without any criticism.
References
In 2015 Heitkamp was the only member of her party to cross over and vote against preventing people under terrorism investigation from purchasing firearms or explosives [1]. This law would have stopped the legal purchase of the firearms used in the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting, as the shooter had been under investigation but he FBI as a terrorist. [2] This vote was not made in a vacuum and mention of the repercussions are relevant to the section. Facts are well documented and corroborated by multiple news sources and the Senate record.

Can anyone find and add an explanation of why she's nicknamed "Heidi"? (My initial guess was that it could just be a shorthand for Heitkamp, but I have no evidence to support that, and it wouldn't explain why her four sisters aren't nicknamed Heidi.) RCTodd ( talk) 17:52, 23 August 2017 (UTC)

This misstated the name of the Dakota Access Pipeline, and claimed that it goes through native American land. That's false. Not that I expect it to be corrected. This is Wikipedia, after all, and noplace for actual facts. 2001:5B0:50D9:C4B8:561:638A:9A04:9227 ( talk) 18:36, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

@ Snooganssnoogans: @ DanCherek: @ AlsoWukai: As you already noticed, Heidi Heitkamp has been recently made target of a coordinated troll campaign by the alt right hate-group calling themselves the Fandom Menace. This comes in the wake of rumours that former actress Gina Carano is planning on suing her for defamation over criticism of the latter's far right views and her association with members of the alt right. There have already been multiple attempts by IP users to vandalize this page by falsely claiming Heidi Heitkamp has made libelous statements against Gina Carano. It might be a good idea to prevent these trolls from doing it at all in the future. 46.97.170.112 ( talk) 10:12, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
