You are correct...and the only reason is that the vote is based on those present. In other words...if only 90 show up...46 to 44 is a win.

But there was no way to accommodate anything but showing up when the rule was made. What would our forefathers do in this EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCE? Put it on a live screen on the Senate floor.

Common sense.

I repeat...Johnson was sworn in on a plane.

swearing in a president is different than being part of a body of leaders taking a vote
