Melensdad--did you have the feinstein -vote numbers -backward?

It sort of looks that way, but no. Its just a bit confusing because of the cloture requirement. All the votes REQUIRED 60 VOTES to PASS.

All the votes I have listed show the number of votes in favor in the first column, the number opposed in the second column.

So if you go back and look, some of the amendments were pro-gun amendments, they lost with a 57 or 58 to 40-something margin. The Feinstein bill lost with 40 votes FOR and 60 votes AGAINST.
