More REP. voted for the civil rights act than DEMS in 1964.

Here's something else you're wrong about this morning. In the House, 152 Democrats and 138 Republicans voted for the Civil Rights Act. In the Senate, 46 Democrats and 27 Republicans voted for it.

but if it's put percentage wise is the percentage of republicans who voted higher then the percentage of democrats? I think it might be higher since the democrats controlled both of houses at that time, and that's probably what is meant when stated that more republicans voted for the civil rights act then democrats.
