13. I posted from Ed Shultz

It was supposed to be a 15 minute vote but it went on and on so perhaps numbers changed

[DonViejo]

14. They left the vote open in the hopes numbers WOULD change...

The vote was held open for long after time technically expired, in the hope that members would switch their votes and pull together the number needed for passage. Numerous lawmakers yelled for "regular order" on the House floor, calling for the vote to end.
