I thought the 1 vote had to be ~~the Zodiac killer~~ Ted Cruz, but no:

The one vote backing moratorium on state AI laws came from Thom Tillis, not Cruz.

Did he just not get the memo, or is he that paid off?

So unless my math is wrong there are 100 senators. And if the only yes vote was my own lovely senator Tillis, Cruz voted against his own thing?!?
