CHICAGO, Illinois (CNN) - Hours after being impeached by an overwhelming vote in the Illinois House of Representatives, a defiant Gov. Rod Blagojevich proclaimed Friday that he was not guilty of impeachable offenses and would fight "every step of the way."
He declared he would be "properly exonerated... at the end of the day."
Blagojevich was impeached by the state House by a vote of 114 to 1. Three members did not vote.
