Usually the way vote counting works is the leadership figures out whether it's going to win or lose, and then members in swing districts to vote the other way.

Usually the way vote counting works is the leadership figures out whether it's going to win or lose, and then members in swing districts to vote the other way. It doesn't change the outcome, but it does give them political cover.
If all the representatives had voted the way they wanted it to turn out, the result would probably have been much more lopsided.
It's theater, basically.
