Moorlach is all alone on this one. Even his shadow vote Norby knows this is a bad idea.

Moorlach AYE
Norby NO
Bates NO
Nguyen NO
Campbell NO

[SWAG]

Moorlach AYE
Norby AYE
Bates AYE
Nguyen AYE
Campbell NO

[Jim]

Moorlach and Norby - yes
All others - no

[The Prophet]

I think they will all vote Aye due to voter pressure.

[Bladerunner]

Same as Jim--Moorlach & Norby aye, the rest no.

[One Who Knows]

Nguyen will obviously vote no. That's why Street hired her lawyer in the first place, to make sure he had her vote.

Also, Bates will go along with Janet. Pat hates confrontation and will move heaven and earth to avoid anything bloody.

John and Chris vote yes.

That leaves Bill. Does he stand with the men or the women?

We'll see tomorrow but if I had to bet the farm, I say he lines up with the girls.

[Flowerszzz]

Moorlach - yes
Norby - yes
Campbell - yes
Nguyen - will abstain due to conflict with her attorney (of which one is NOT present!)
Bates - no

[redperegrine]

I like flowerszz angle - but really, that's not a conflict.

Most likely - there will be no decision tomorrow.

[duplojohn]

ALL YES.

One of the few "good" unilateral decisions they'll make this year.

[Tomahawk]

Norby - Yes
Moorlach - Yes
Campbell - No
Bates - No
Nguyen - No

[Jubal]

Norby -- Yes
Moorlach -- Yes
Campbell -- Yes
Nguyen -- Abstain
Bates -- No

Moorlach - Yes (to try to rid Street quickly so their backdoor dealings do not come to light and he starts to go down the drain with his buddy)
Norby - Yes (to help Moorlach save face)
Campbell - No pending further investigation
Nguyen - No pending further investigation
Bates - No pending further investigation

[Tomahawk]

Chances are, Street will retain his investment portfolio tomorrow because it takes 4 votes to adopt Moorlach's resolution.

[jimmy]

Norby- yes
Moorlach- yes
Campbell- no
Nguyen- no
Bates- yes

[plow boy]

They better strip the crook!

If they don't, they have zero credibility!

[Mark Brainard]

Moorlach--yes
all others No

[Allan Bartlett]

Moorlach & Norby Yes

Nguyen, Bates, & Campbell No

[Karl Rove]

Moorlach and Norby will vote yes. Bates and Campbell will vote no. Janet will abstain due to the attorney conflict (although not a legal conflict, it can be construed as an ethical/political conflict, and she would be wise to abstain).

As such, Moorlach's proposal will die due to the tie vote.

[New Majority- Campbell/Bates/Nguyen]

one who knows said:
"Nguyen will obviously vote no. That's why Street hired her lawyer in the first place, to make sure he had her vote.

Also, Bates will go along with Janet. Pat hates confrontation and will move heaven and earth to avoid anything bloody.

John and Chris vote yes.

I agree and it's a smart thing for Bill to lining up with "the girls". They can now form a new majority and let Norby and Moorloch pontificate until the cows come home!
