The Senate vote was 63 to 36 to pass the debt ceiling bill. It was a contrived no vote. Those no voters knew the law would pass and were able to display their anger without impacting the resulting debt ceiling hike. Those voting NO could say to their constituents that they stood up to the big spenders. Sadly spending is out of control and everyone knows that is a fact.
Here are the NO voters as reported by the Washington Post. Numbers 1 to 63 were the YES votes
