Equal Rights Bill of 2007

[Јas]

The following amendment is now at vote:

I motion to strike Section 3 and Section 4 of this legislation

Please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain accordingly.

[Јas]

Uh, each amendment should have been introduced separately.

Apologies Sam, I read it as a single amendment.
If there are no objections, I will post-facto declare that the vote is on both amendments separately.
Thus making the running tallies as follows:

Amendment to strike section 3
Aye: 2 (afleitch; Sam)
Nay: 4 (Ebowed; Moderate; Lewis; Verily)
Vacant : 1 (Pacific)
Yet to Vote: 3 (Brandon; Earl; Sensei)

Amendment to strike section 4
Aye: 1 (Sam)
Nay: 5 (Ebowed; Moderate; Lewis; Verily; afleitch)
Vacant : 1 (Pacific)
Yet to Vote: 3 (Brandon; Earl; Sensei)

If an objection is lodged by any Senator, I will declare the vote void and will open a new vote for both amendments as soon as allowed.

Apologies for any inconvenience/confusion caused.

[Јas]

Tally on Amendment to strike section 3
Aye: 3 (afleitch; Sam; Brandon)
Nay: 5 (Ebowed; Moderate; Lewis; Verily; Sensei)
Yet to Vote: 2 (Earl; Everett)

Voting is still open on this amendment, though it will time out tomorrow.


Result on Amendment to strike section 4
Aye: 2 (Sam; Brandon)
Nay: 6 (Ebowed; Moderate; Lewis; Verily; afleitch; Sensei)
Abstain [Didn't Vote]: 2 (Earl; Everett)

With 6 Nays, this Amendment fails.

[Јas]

Result on Amendment to strike section 3
Aye: 3 (afleitch; Sam; Brandon)
Nay: 5 (Ebowed; Moderate; Lewis; Verily; Sensei)
Abstain [Didn't Vote]: 2 (Earl; Everett)

The amendment has timed out. With a vote of 3-5-2, the amendment fails.

And with that no further voting will be proceeded with until the budget is resolved.

[Јas]

This Bill has enough votes to pass.
Senators have 24 hours within which they may change their votes.
