I sure do wish we were there. It would be like the roundup on 'Rawhide'.
I think the quorum vote is to see if there are enough Senators present to take a vote. I'm not sure what the percentage is.
Burr was an AYE!
I think I'm going to throw up. :x
quorum - The number of Senators that must be present for the Senate to do business. The Constitution requires a majority of Senators (51) for a quorum. Often, fewer Senators are actually present on the floor, but the Senate presumes that a quorum is present unless the contrary is shown by a roll call vote or quorum call.
