I hereby open up the veto override vote. Please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.


Aye

Ties don't happen very often. Nobody complains if there's a tie that results in a runnoff in a Senate or Gubernatorial election. And since this is the first time a tie almost happened in a Presidential election in 5 years there shouldn't be any problems.

Can't we at least tackle all of these issues with one piece of legislation? Tongue

There are enough votes to override this veto. Senators now have 24 hours to change their votes.

And be straightforward and clear? Why? Wink

I would like to hear what people thought of our earlier discussion though. We definitely should work to clarify how to work ties out, regardless of how rare they may be.
