Scott (VA) and Williams (GA) voted Nay

Green (TX) and Jackson (IL) voted present. Couldn't give you a reason though

Jackson Lee (TX) and Phillips (MN) were not voting for some reason as well as AOC who I suspect didn't vote since she's also a NY member

It's probably time to check those closets for some skeletons. AOC at least makes a little sense, not wanting to make it seem personal, but I would have rather she ran up the score.

Honestly it's a bit strange, she's never been shy about confrontation.

Edit: lmaaaooooo case in point, what's she's said about Pelosi

She's become a bit of an establishment Republic recently, the thing she'd rally against. The defense is that you need to play their game to get anything done. Ok, but if she's playing their game, she's already lost.

Out of NY's 26 Representatives in Congress 22 voted to oust Santos and 3 (including Santos himself) voted to keep him in. AOC was the only NY Representative who chose not to vote. I wonder why she abstained.
