Note: Coloring in the vote outcome column does not currently account for votes that require more than a simple majority to pass. Putting a constitutional amendment before voters, for example, takes approval from two-thirds of lawmakers across both houses. Additionally, bills that authorize state debt must pass with two-thirds supermajorities in each legislative chamber.
