If the member is present, but abstains from voting, this is somehow counted, usually with the vote of, literally, 'present'. That all assumed that there was a vote count in the first place, which it sounds like there was. Mileage varies with parliamentary rules. | |

Jim Jeffords switched parties in 2001. Judd Gregg was almost in the Obama administration (Secretary of Commerce). Etc. | |
