664   On Thursday, June 10, the Senator from the 15th, Senator Cullen, raised the point of order that the Senator from the 31st, Senator Harnisch, is recorded as having voted while the Senate was under call, but was not currently in his seat. The chair took the point of order under advisement.

In order for the Senate to transact business under call, all members must be present.

The chair, immediately following the time the point of order was taken under advisement, noticed that the Senator from the 31st returned to the chambers. It is the opinion of the chair that the point of order is well taken. However, since the Senator of the 31st had returned the vote is considered valid.
  The ayes and noes were required and the vote was: [Display of roll call vote omitted; ayes-20, noes-13.] Less than two-thirds having voted in the affirmative, the senate refused to pass the vetoed bill notwithstanding the objections of the Governor.
