*** SENATE VOTE RESULTS: 1-74 ***

[Freddie Stubbs]

Did anyone really expect it to turn out differently? :shrug:

[dubyaD40web]

1. Not really.

[mousie]

6. I guess Kerry

was sort of trying to prepare us for this with his email? Still I had that tiny bit of hope... not really expecting it, but just hanging by a thread that it COULD still happen. *sigh*

[JI7]

14. it strengthens the Democratic party's points made in the debate

that they are trying to get voter reform (which Republicans do not want or care for) and not about overturning the 2004 elections.


that's what it was always about. that's what Kerry has always said. it wasn't any hidden meaning or being scared. it was about putting the focus on reform.

[bread_and_roses]

30. No, it weakens them

why did they not vote with Boxer? What did they have to lose? The R's have the majority, there was no question of outcome, so I ask again, what did they have to lose??????

My profound respect to Boxer and a POX on the rest of the pusillanimous cowards who voted that accepting a racist and income-based hierarchy of citizen rights is just fine with them.

Is there anyone who doubts that the outcry would have been different had those who were disenfranchised been White and of means? The squealing from the Senate floor would have been audible clear to the Oval office.

2. Agreed - If they wouldn't object 2 hours ago - why would they now? nt

[derby378]

3. Was the one "Aye" vote Boxer or Levin?

[Freddie Stubbs]

4. Boxer

[kath]

5. Only Boxer.

[pbartch]

8. I HEARD LEVIN WAS ........AN AYE TOO

[Califooyah Operative]

27. i guess he changed his vote. nt

[bones_7672]

7. What happened to Levin's AYE? n/t

[spooked911]

9. Actually-- I wasn't even sure before yesterday that we'd even have 1 vote

[noamnety]

10. I'm confused about Levin

I swear I heard a Levin: Aye. And then later, around Snow, I thought I heard a Levin: Nay.

[Freddie Stubbs]

12. He may have changed his vote

:shrug:

[lakeguy]

wouldn't that be something if they couldn't even get the vote right

even for this?

[genius]

11. Who were those not voting?

[proud2BlibKansan]

13. Kerry is in Iraq

[Ian David]

18. A bunch of senators SPOKE in favor of refusing to certify

They SPOKE against certifying the vote.

Yet they VOTED IN FAVOR of certifying the vote!

"I voted for it after I spoke against it."

Please correct me if I am wrong.

[eowyn_of_rohan]

24. Does anyone know if Senator Feingold spoke?

You are right. A number of them said they would vote to certify but want to fix the voting system. who cares. We've been tricked and cheated again and democracy is dead here.

[Freddie Stubbs]

33. I don't think that he did, but I do remember hearing him vote 'nay'

[merh]

15. Levins voted with boxer

you sure you got the # right?

[Snivi Yllom]

19. Levin changed his vote back to NO

I thnk he misunderstodd what he was voting for.

[farmbo]

21. Levin takes the cake...both a Wuss AND a Dunce!

:eyes:

[Ganja Ninja]

16. sickening!

Barely a whimper. :argh:

[housewolf]

17. Yes, I expected 0 - 100!

So I'm thrilled!

[bones_7672]

25. Oh yeah, that ONE vote will mean a lot to voter reform (NOT!) n/t

[Ian David]

35. ONE REPUBLICAN IN THE HOUSE ACTUALLY VOTED YES!!

So, there is actually one republican who is actually still an American.

Oops. Cspan just changed the tally.

Zero repugs.

They hate us for our freedom.

[drummer55]

How many Dems?

How many Reps?

How many Independents?

[Pacifist Patriot]

22. I could have sworn I heard an aye from Levin. Damn!

[Snivi Yllom]

29. you did, he made a mistake and had to go back and correct it

thought his AYE meant something else

[Pam-Moby]

31. Ok then Levin voted no?

Well he will not be getting a thank you card. Then I made a mistake on another thread. I thought he said AYE

[anamandujano]

23. i thought i heard a no from boxer

i heard aye from levin

[Freddie Stubbs]

32. She said 'aye'

After the first time they went throught the roll they announced who voted each way. Boxer was the only 'aye.'

[buddysmellgood]

26. I'll take what we got, but wish a few more democrats would vote with

Boxer.

[sd_UDO]

34. We can create a better election system

36. They just came into the House and said they'd "disposed of"

the objections from the Senators of CA & OH, and were proceeding with the vote for President & VP.

"Disposed of"...good lord.
"Disposed of" along with Democracy.

Here comes Cheney puke-face. Not my VP. It's gonna a long 4 yrs.

[Blue_In_AK]

37. Correction - two years

Standing by my prediction that * will be forced out of office sometime before the 2006 elections.
