How we record bill votes
Bills are initially assigned to a House or Senate committee. We record the
votes on the bills assigned to this originating committee. We do not record
votes to secondary committees or Joint Committees at this time. We do not
identify members of Joint Committees at this time.
Once bills arrive in the General Assembly chambers, there may be multiple
votes. We record only the final votes on each bill. Some bills do not receive
a final vote; we record those bills as postponed indefinitely.
Our votes are taken from the State General Assembly website. If a vote is
missing on that site, we do not have a record of that vote.
Please contact us with
questions or corrections.
