1. Is Senator Warner still in isolation and not voting? Which Republican didn't vote?

I'm checking the Senate's page but they don't have the roll call yet.

4. toomey. no reason given, but harris didn't vote. n/t

[TNNurse]

7. Toomey did not vote on Buttigieg either.

51. Toomey PA has been anti-trump. He gave a speech against the riot. I think Toomey's the new Mit:

I have a feeling he was just looking for a reason to burn the current gop. Just a guess.

[BobTheSubgenius]

36. I'm sure I read somewhere that there are provisions made so he can vote in absentia.

I hope I'm not wrong about this, but I'm pretty sure of it.

2. uhmm, no. don't be so.. uhmm, wrong. n/t

6. The Georgia runoffs are already paying dividends.

46. ❤️👏❤️👏❤️👏❤️ and her posse!

[AmBlue]

47. THIS lady ...

We owe her!!!

[BComplex]

49. World's authentic Wonder Woman! Stacey Abrams!

[BobTheSubgenius]

39. As we all knew they would!

Mr. and Mrs. America owe a much larger debt to Stacey Abrams than probably 98% of them know....or will admit.

[blm]

18. *shudder*

[Johnny2X2X]

5. She didn't need to vote

Toomey sat out. 50-49 is majority and all that was needed.

[My Pet Orangutan]

8. But she was in the chair to see it

[bucolic_frolic]

12. Toomey is the most useless tool

[Blue_true]

21. He is a republican. So it is very good that he didn't vote.

By not voting, he gave the Democrats the victory. He surely would have known what would happen.

I am happy that Manchin and Simena stayed home and voted as we hoped.

[OhNo-Really]

34. Wait what? He helped pass the bill

Without soiling his Republicant voting record

[BobTheSubgenius]

40. And the subtlety therein is probably lost on the average Toomey blockhead.

I mean voter. My bad.

[OhNo-Really]

44. 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

[honest.abe]

9. YES!!! I knew she could do it!

Love that pic!

[bucolic_frolic]

11. Republicans on the short end of the stick and we're not listening to them

Turnabout is fair play.

[bdamomma]

13. Checkmate!!!

next bill please.

[onetexan]

28. +1 -K&R- gotta give it to Kamala on this one

[HUAJIAO]

[Marie Marie]

22. Toomey, the fiscal responsibility Nutcase didn't vote???

[SheltieLover]

23. Ty, Madam Vice President!!!!

I've been patiently awaiting her first!!!

[sarcasmo]

24. Hopefully with an over sized gavel for an exclamation point.

[crud]

25. Even if she didn't have to

cast a vote, she was there to ensure the outcome, whether Toomy was there or not. This is what the majority looks like.

[wryter2000]

26. Be still, my heart

[grantcart]

27. No tie, no VP vote and apparently no tweet

In a rush to be first someone jumped the gun.

Suggest you delete thread

[George II]

29. I thought that was going to happen, too. But Toomey didn't vote so it was 50-49.

41. Do you know why Toomey didn't vote? nt

[George II]

42. Someone thought he may have been caught in the snow yesterday. Can't find anything else.

[choie]

30. YAYAY!

[lpbk2713]

35. That's excellent.

Show them what they think just doesn't matter any more.

[LAS14]

38. Why wasn't it 51 to 50? nt

[bearsfootball516]

43. Toomey didn't vote, which means Kamala didn't have to tirbreak

OP is incorrect.

[onenote]

48. Why is this factually incorrect OP still up?

[Celerity]

50. +1

[Blue Owl]

53. K&R

[lagomorph777]

54. VP Harris will indeed need a cot on Capitol Hill.

She's not going to be able to get out much! I see many long days in her future.
