Interesting division on the votes.

10 Democrats voted against the Wyden-Daines amendment that would have prohibited FBI warrantless surveillance of web browser history.

Bernie Sanders didn’t show up to vote. It was defeated by one vote.

The 10 Democrats who joined GOP in defeating amendment to stop FBI warrantless surveillance of web browser history: Carper, Casey, Feinstein, Hassan, Jones, Kaine, Manchin, Shaheen, Warner and Whitehorse.

Joined the GOP in defeating? You do realize that the GOD breakdown on this was pretty much an even split?

While yes, the Patriot Act as a whole needs to go, chances are very low Congress will get rid of it. So at least this amendment would have added a bit of protection for people. We, as FR, would have wanted this to pass.
