This is what I'm saying. Name one vote she took besides the shutdown one in her Senate career that you had an issue with that means we need to primary her.

Fuck that. This was a critical vote where she failed.
Maybe I will be all alone on this, but I will not support this extent of craven capitulation to authoritarianism from my senators. If any of those ten see primary challenges at any point in their career going forward, I will support that challenger. They'll still get my vote in a general election if they make it there (and I'm under no delusions: most, if not all, will do exactly that) but that's it.
It's also part of a pattern for Hassan and Shaheen. They often vote with republicans for something shitty that barely passes the senate with a handful of democratic votes. In the past those shitty things haven't been anywhere near so critical, but this is not a once-off aberration.

Agreed. We really need to pick our battles here. READ THE ROOM.

So, to answer your challenge on "one other vote" that I had an issue with, there was the 2018 banking deregulation bill. https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/2155
