Procedural moves
The floor fights that don’t show up as a final vote: motions to suspend the rules (often a minority party trying to force a vote on its amendment), amendments ruled not germane or out of order, and bills deferred or reconsidered in the 91st General Assembly. Read from each bill’s official history, which gives the outcome and sometimes the count, but not who made the motion. How floor debate works
