The PRESIDING OFFICER.  Two-thirds have not voted for the resolution.

Mr. PLUMB subsequently said:  I wish to state that I was unexpectedly called out of the Senate just before the vote was taken on the constitutional amendment, and to also state that if I had been here I should have voted for it.
