"Senate Votes 97-1, on Final Round of Cloture (November 4, 2009)
Friends – shortly before 1 pm today, the Senate voted on its final round of cloture on the unemployment extension bill. The vote was 97 – 1. Jim DeMint (R-SC) was the only dissenting vote. At the very latest, the Senate will pass this bill tomorrow morning, at which time it will be sent back to the House for passage and then to the President for signature. We anticipate this will all be done before close of business on Friday at the latest."
If someone can post a link or two for the information that the bill is going to the actual vote today at 5:00 please post the links. I have read through several articles and am not seeing anything saying anything more than it is poised to go for a vote and that it could happen today, but nothing concrete.
I heard this, but thought I was hallucinating. Tell me I'm not!!
