                            Vote Explanation

 Ms. STABENOW. Mr. President, I was unable to attend today's 
cloture votes on the nominations of Noah Mamet to be U.S. Ambassador to 
Argentina and Colleen Bell to be U.S. Ambassador to Hungary. Had I been 
able to attend, I would have supported both cloture motions.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New York.
  Mrs. GILLIBRAND. I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant bill clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. REID. I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call 
be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
