Absences could have flipped it
It passed 43–40 with 10 Republicans and 6 Democrats and 1 independent not voting. The losing side was 3 votes short and 7 of its members didn't vote: with them it would have failed 43–47. But the winning side's absences offset that: with everyone there, the result would have stood (53–47).
Assuming each absent member would have voted with most of their party.
Didn't vote, on the losing side (7): Alex Padilla (D-CA), Tina Smith (D-MN), Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), John Fetterman (D-PA), Bernie Sanders (I-VT)
