That’s what I said from the start. The knowledge of the vote itself - well-publicized and officially published on Congress’ website - is sufficient notice.

There’s no Constitutional description of an individual who can choose not to transmit articles of impeachment. The vote was taken, the deed is done. Let’s get on with this.

That’s the problem. Until Nancy the Red Queen of the House allows that vote to be officially recorded, it doesn’t exist in the records of the House of Representatives and it hasn’t officially taken place until she signs it as an official act of the House of Representatives, according to the House Rules. So far, it hasn’t been officially published. She’s sitting on it like a throne, waiting to drop it on the Senate when it best suits her party’s needs.

Another thing no one is mentioning, if the Senate does dismiss these articles of impeachment (note I have deliberately lower cased the title), Queen Nonecy can easily schedule another vote and send them again, and again, and again. She can practice a legislative form of Barratry on the Senate, repeatedly sending articles of impeachment at her royal whim.
