The vote, broken down

A Republican amendment failed 53–43. A majority voted yes, but it needed 60.

How your senators voted

  • A majority voted yes, but this needed 60

    53 voted yes, 7 short of the 60 it took. A simple majority was not enough for this vote.

  • 14 senators voted against most of their party

  • It would have failed either way

    7 of the 43 who voted no (36 Democrats, 6 Republicans and 1 independent) switching to yes would have made it pass.

    As voted
    53–43 Fails
    If the 14 who voted against most of their party had voted with it
    51–45 Fails
    If the 4 who didn't vote had voted with their party
    56–44 Fails
    If both had happened
    54–46 Fails
