looks like 44 yeas
Watching cspan now. Little Bobby Corker (he is really a tiny little man) walking around the well of the Senate and everybody grabbing him with both arms, lots of pats on the back and double arm grab close in the face comments to him. He’s the MAN of the day, cause of course now he’s going to get the kickback from the sale of TVA.
Cloture vote.
Ayotte- Yes. Corker Yes. Feinstein, flake graham hatch, heitkamp Kean Leahy, manchin, mcain rubio sander schumer, shaheen stabenow, warner warren wicker wyden, some of them.Hagen Nc Reid.Menendez.
Negative
Blunt, Burr Coburn Cornyn, Crapo Cruz Fisher, Johnsons Wi , McConnell, Shelby Thune, Toomey Vitter. Inhofe and some more I missed.
We are watching Mr. Cornyn’s vote carefully!
This is on Corker amendment:
NO ONE HAS READ IT, BUT WE’RE GONNA VOTE ON IT.
This is not on bill passage.
I hope they have to Vote Like A Pirate, where “All in Favor, signify by saying ARRRRGGHHH!”
Cornyn voted against it as I knew he would.
Anyone hear how Portman (OH) voted?
Never said I thought you thought it was.
Portman votes no. I’m pleasantly surprised.
Portman just voted “No”
Portman voted “no”.
Thanks :)
Anyone keep a count what they are up to now? I was hearing a lot of “ayes” from the late-comers.
Can’t get any closer than that!
Yeah, I don’t think this is going to pass as a whole. All it takes is more phone calls and pressure and I think in the end that even Rubio will vote against it.
There are already 12 Republicans who’ve voted yes.
Thanks.Wasn’t at all sure what he’d do.
Not good.
