Vote is confusing. A NAY vote signified an unwillingness to stop treaty. A YEA vote was a vote to stop the treaty. The 46 NAY votes in favor of the treaty were alll Dims. No Republicans voted in favor of the treaty. If I counted correctly 8 Dims also voted to stop the treaty.
Incorrect. At least one Republican (Florida’s Rubio) voted “NO” which was a vote AGAINST the Amendment and IN FAVOR of adding the U.S. as a signatory to the U.N. treaty. All you have to do to understand the vote is to see how Chuck U. Shumer voted. He voted NO.
Yeah, maybe Rubio didn’t understand which way to vote and got confused? Ya think? (Yikes—freshmen!)
