The other 3,012 did not count: 2,953 were roll calls whose direction on this issue could not be read confidently — mostly procedural motions — and 59 were ones they did not cast a yea or nay on. They are listed below anyway, marked as not scored, because a filtered list of votes is not a voting record.
