Does NoName actually have to be on the Senate floor to vote?
It appears they must be present. Maybe NoName is making a deal with a Dem Senator to either not vote or vote yes if NoName cannot be present.

YES. He MUST be physically present. That’s why you’ve seen congresscritters rolled into Congress on gurneys to vote.
