Vote history
A bill is usually voted on in two kinds of division. Amendment put is a vote on a proposed change to the bill or motion; Question put is the vote on the bill or motion itself, as it then stands. Two rows can therefore share a title: the count beside each result and the official record show which vote was which. The record does not publish the amendment’s wording here.
