Update:  The call was lifted earlier and only four more aye votes were cast, making it 32-34.  There are 77 members present to vote on today’s file.   

SB 110, that would create a prison sentencing commission, basically allowing "another 2nd chance" for criminals convicted of serious crimes to have reduced sentences, was on our floor minutes ago.  It has run into problems with even many of the Dems as it is on call with a 28 aye to 34 no count…wow.  [6 Dems voting "no", all Reps present, "no"]
