ANALYSIS:
Democrats voted 29-20 against Fast Track, the best percentage of Senate Democrats that we have ever achieved on a trade vote.
Two Republicans who voted right in May switched their votes: Ensign (NV) and Gregg (NH). One Republican who voted wrong in May voted right this time: Burns (MT).
Four Democrats who voted wrong in May switched their votes: Biden (DE), Dayton (MN), Edwards (NC), Harkin (IA). |
