It sounds like it guys.An article mentioned Reid had filed the motion to end debate and by Senate rules it must be done in 30 hours or under.

Sorry man, she read too fast

i dont know exactly, but seems close.

How likely are we going to get 70 votes? The actual vote is after the vote to end debate right?

^I think we'll be stuck at 69 judging by that prior vote concerning the 'point of order'.C-span also says 'vote to limit debate and amendments' so this is more than likely the last vote that requires 60 votes before final passage.

this is not final passage? how many votes does final passsage require, 50?

67 Ayes - 31 Nays

motion agreed to 67-31

wait, does this mean the bill passed in the senate? was that the final vote? im confused.

Yes...but the motion to end debate is where we are looking for plus 70 votes. Passage requires simple majority.
