Absences could have flipped it

It passed 47–46 with 5 Republicans and 2 Democrats not voting. The losing side was one vote short and 2 of its members didn't vote: with them it would have failed 47–48. But the winning side's absences offset that: with everyone there, the result would have stood (52–48).

Assuming each absent member would have voted with most of their party.

Didn't vote, on the losing side (2): John Fetterman (D-PA), Mark Warner (D-VA)

Didn't vote, on the winning side (5): Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), James Risch (R-ID), Steve Daines (R-MT), Tim Sheehy (R-MT)
