McConnell Hoeven farm bill vote mixup

par Not A Charm: Mitch McConnell

The farm bill passed 12 to 11, but getting there was a whole ordeal. During the Senate vote, Mitch McConnell said 'aye' while John Hoeven kept telling him 'no' right next to him. Someone on staff had to jump in, and the committee chairman backed McConnell up, confirming his vote was the correct one. Hoeven's office says the confusion was on his end about the topic at hand. A lot of noise over one procedural slip.
