Amman Singh nods at Michael Ferreira as the president leaves on important business. He assumes the chair.

"With 15 ayes and 18 nays, Amendment I does not pass."
"With 12 ayes, 19 nays and 3 abstentions, Amendment II does not pass."
"With 11 ayes, 21 nays and 1 abstention, Amendment III does not pass."
"With 11 ayes, 19 nays and 3 abstentions, Amendment IV does not pass."
"With 12 ayes, 19 nays and 2 abstentions, Amendment V does not pass."
"With 12 ayes, 19 nays and 2 abstentions, Amendment VI does not pass."

Amman takes a sip of water, getting tired of announcing all these identical results.

"With 11 ayes, 19 nays and 3 abstentions, Amendment VII does not pass."
"With 15 ayes and 18 nays, Amendment VIII does not pass."
"With 14 ayes, 16 nays and 3 abstentions, Amendment IX does not pass."

"And last but not least, with 14 ayes, 18 nays and 1 abstention, Amendment X does not pass."

"An objection to the consideration of the question is not in order during voting procedure."

"Furthermore, the President of the Senate has been given a positive report by the Select Committee on Judicial Nominations. This satisfies the requirement, despite delays in committee records being released by the reporter."
