Conyers, Tubbs-Jones, Jackson Jr., Waters...
I'm sure I could think of more, who wants to add?

2. I'm curious who the one fleeting R-yea was. |
|
It appeared and disappeared a couple times at the beginning.
Damn electronic voting!

What's the deal with the House voting machines I wonder? Repub yeas come and go, Dem yeas reduce mysteriously. This reminds me of something....

8. DELEGATE Eleanor Holmes Norton is a NON-VOTING member of the House |
|
Since the Repukes won't give statehood to D.C., none of the representatives from D.C. have ever been able to vote. Nor can any of the territorial delegates to the House (Guam, Puetro Rico, etc.)vote.
If Norton voted, this would be a historic first. :eyes:

I did see her speak, so, I just assumed she voted that way, forgetting that she can't vote.

Well, there are 33 voting members of the Congressional Black Caucus. That would be my bet. Perhaps one was absent, thereby, giving you the 32 votes.

15. you're probably right |
|
Kucinich making up the 33rd. That would be pretty sad if it broke down that way. Only African-Americans (besides Boxer and K.) care about the integrity of our electoral system?

21. Woah - the young Congressman Conyers is handsome! |
|
And there were a few pale faces in the line-up: Evans, Farr, Filner, Hinchey, Kucinich, Markey, Olver, Pallone, Schakowsky, and Woolsey.
Woolsey was great today! :-)
