Interesting note here ...
Quote:
The vote came as a surprise since support for the Internet gambling ban largely was muted in the committee's previous hearings.
When the committee clerk announced the 32-32 tie, the audience oohed and aahed.
...
Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., the committee chairman who supported King's amendment, then called for a voice vote on the underlying bill to prohibit new regulations on Internet gambling.
Although there were a number of yea and nay votes heard, Frank said the bill was defeated.
