The Speaker Pro Tem called for a vote at about 1:07am. The republicans voted. The democrats started shouting. The room was clearing out with the democrats shouting in unison and waving their hands at the republicans. The sound was a bit off, but if I had to guess I think they were shouting "Sit, Sit, Sit, Sit" trying to get the assemblymen back in their seats. Then WisEye cut the feed. I hope it didn't get ugly.

Sounds like we've devolved into another banana republic. Thanks to everyone for providing updates - this is fascinating to follow ...

I gotta congratulate you for sticking with it - I had an early meeting Friday so had to give it up before the bill was passed and just now had a chance to get caught up.
There is no better example of the old saying about “if you like sausage, stay away from the place where it’s made”. And Wisconsin is well known for it’s sausage ;-)
Some of the Dems have really disgraced themselves and the Assembly IMHO, especially as you say when their Senate colleagues are on the lam.
