Painful. Seven flipped votes would have done it.
@normative Also note like 11-12 non-votes. Would have brought it w/in 2 or 3. Again, if Pelosi is counting, not gonna lose close vote.

@emptywheel@normative Speaker Pro Tem gavelled the vote closed immediately after the clock ran out...usually Members have 2 minutes more. -
@PGEddington And if those 11-12 votes were yes, it would have been (by my count) a 2- vote margin.@normative -
@emptywheel@normative Compare Ds still in Congress who voted against PA reauth in 2011 with today's vote. Prob lost Ds today we had then. -
@PGEddington And prolly had GOPers who we had no chance of then.@normative -
@emptywheel@normative No question.
